THE "ASSASINS" SERIES

The "Assasins" series will expand soon...

Last year the series has grown for two beautiful coins!

 

 

THE "KNIGHTS TEMPLAR" - second coin from "Assasins" series"

The Order of the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, also known as the Knights Templar, was a Catholic military order founded in 1119. The Knights Templar operated until 1312, when the order was indefinitely abolished by Pope Clement V. Wearing their distinctive white cloaks with a red cross, the Templars were one of the most skilled fighting units of the Crusades. The non-combatant members of the order managed a sizeable economic infrastructure throughout Christendom, developing innovative financial techniques that were an early form of banking and arguably creating the world's first multinational corporation. The reverse of the coin presents an exceptionally detailed image of the Templars going on a crusade. The high relief perfectly highlights every detail. The sword of the monk from the foreground has been gilded. At the bottom of the coin the motto of the Knights Templar "Non nobis Domine, non nobis, sed nomini Tuo da gloriam!" is placed, which means "Not for us, My Lord, not for us, but to your Name give the glory". Next to it there is the motto of St Benedict of Nursia, "Ora et labora!", which means "Pray and work!".  

  
  

   

 
 
Incredibly beautiful coins in form of statue!

The another coin of the "Assassins" series. To meet the fascination of the Middle East, we decided to create a statue that perfectly reflects the character of the hero. The Nizaris are the largest segment of the Ismaili Muslims, who are the second-largest branch of Shia Islam after the Twelvers. Nizari teachings emphasize independent reasoning or ijtihad; pluralism—the acceptance of racial, ethnic, cultural and inter-religious differences; and social justice. Nizaris, along with Twelvers, adhere to the Jaʽfari school of jurisprudence. The Aga Khan, currently Aga Khan IV, is the spiritual leader and Imam of the Nizaris. The coin was struck from 5 ounces of silver. It comes in an elegant box with a certificate of authenticity, decorated with beautiful oriental ornaments. The mintage is only 200 pieces!
