Afternoon everyone…..
What’s up stackers…..
So let’s just say there’s a series from the Silvertowne Mint that deserves some attention. It’s called the Legendary Warrior series, and it’s totally badass.
I picked up the latest release which is the third in the series Achilles.
Here is the info from the Silvertowne site:
As the third release in the exclusive Warriors Series this silver round features Achilles. The first in the series is Eric Bloodaxe, the second being Julius Caesar. The round commemorates Achilles, a Legendary Greek Mythology figure who was invulnerable aside from his heel. The reason for this is because as Achille's mother had dipped him into the River Styx while holding him by the heel which left it susceptible to injury and harm. Known for his unmatched strength, invincibility and unwavering pursuit of vengeance, Achilles Symbolizes courage and determination. As the greatest warrior of the Trojan War, his legend continues to captivate generations, and this commemorative round immortalizes his legacy for numismatic enthusiasts and fans of ancient mythology alike.
As a member of the army of Agamemnon, Achilles was a hero of the Trojan war. Because of his heroic bravery he was thought to be the most successful soldier in the Greek army. Achilles annihilated Troy and the surrounding areas, taking 12 cities over a 9-ear period. In the 10th year of the war, a disagreement between Agamemnon and Achilles developed. This animosity resulted in the wrath of Apollo who was said to have wiped out Agamemnon's camp with an outbreak of disease. Eventually, Achilles and Agamemnon reconciled. In a fit of vengeance, Achilles killed Hector and then desecrated his body by dragging it behind his chariot, delivering it to King Priam. However, Achilles met his own demise in battle when he was struck by Paris' arrow, guided by Apollo, which pierced his vulnerable heel.
Now the round.
