The famous tomb and its hidden secrets
On November 4, 1922, the English archaeologist Howard Carter made one of the most important discoveries in the history of archaeology: the almost intact tomb of the pharaoh Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. He brought to light around 1,000 well-preserved grave goods, including the death mask of the young pharaoh.
The pure copper silhouette coin was issued to mark the 100th anniversary of the spectacular discovery of the tomb. An elaborate color application and pure 999 gold set brilliant accents and imitate the splendor of the death mask!
