Description

Coin Highlights: Contains 2 oz of .999 fine Silver. Each 2 oz coin in this Biblical series is packaged in a gift box reminiscent of the Bible. Included certificate of authenticity lists 2 Kings 2:9-13 (NLT & NIV) which states: Elijah said to Elisha, "Tell me what I can do for you before I am taken away." And Elisha replied, "Please let me inherit a double share of your spirit and become your successor." "You have asked a difficult thing," Elijah replied, "If you see me when I am taken from you, then you will get your request. But if not, then you won't." As they were walking along and talking, suddenly a chariot of fire appeared, drawn by horses of fire, it drove between the two men, separating them, and Elijah was carried by a whirlwind into heaven. Elisha saw it and cried out, "My father! My father! I see the chariots and charioteers of Israel!" And as they disappeared from sight, Elisha tore his clothes in two. Elisha then picked up Elijah's cloak, which had fallen when he was taken up. Obverse: Features the Raphael Maklouf likeness of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by the weight, purity and face value. Reverse: Inspired by Gustave Doré's illustration of "Elijah Taken Up to Heaven in a Chariot of Fire," a wood engraved scene originally produced in the 1860s. Edge: Laser-etched serial number, from 1 to 1499, which matches the serial number found on the included certificate of authenticity. Individually housed in a card with an assay certificate.
