Tree of Life

The Tree of Life, also known as Etz haChayim, is a part of the Jewish Cabalistic system of sacred geometry. The tree represents the template that has been used to draw many of the religious symbols, like the pentacle and the cross, with deeper meaning and the connections with archetypes also being represented.

Tree of Life 1oz Silver Coin

The Nieu Tree of Life 2023 silver coin was released by the New Zealand Mint, and struck by the Sunshine Mint. With a two dollar face value, backed by the New Zealand government, the one Troy ounce weight of .9999 silver is worth much more.

The tree side of this coin features an almond tree to represent the tree of life, the background has satisfying spiral radial lines. Below the tree is the Hebrew text for Yahweh, the god of the Hebrews. Along the lower right curve of the coin is the text "ONE TROY OUNCE .9999 FINE SILVER".

The back side of the coin features the Public Seal of Nieu, an island of New Zealand, with the motto 'Atua, Niue Tukulagi', meaning 'God, Niue Eternally'.

The tree of life representation is a classic design, with it's deep roots, strong trunk, and healthy branches, a fine silver coin for the stack.

Wow, that is a great coin!!!
The front fields are totally different from the back fields!
Stack on, @mraggaj !

And they have the tree side described as the reverse side, seems backwards to me :)

That's a great looking coin! I think the subtle spiral, radial lines add a lot of character to it and compliment the tree design nicely. Thanks for sharing! 😁

I agree it's a good match up with the tree, it gives a shimmer as if the sun was behind it, vortex vibes too :)

I got one too 😎 these guys sure do love Hebrew

It's their yearly Hebrew coin pair release, they tree of life and the lion of Judah.. I was stoked cause I have the lion, but then I realized my lion is 2022 lol

Lol I see i got me an artificially toned lion too not sure what year will get around to posting it eventually 🤣

Very clear design. So nice outlines.

I love the name of the silver "Tree of life"
It looks good too

Wow that's soo beautiful and stunning I love it. It's interesting

Their coins are getting better and better. Those details are amazing. That's a great pickup. Nuie is impressing more all the time with their high end silver.

The description on sgbull said the backside was Elizabeth II, I was pleasantly surprised with the alternate Nieu seal :)
