DESCRIPTION
Without him, the gods would not even have their greatest symbols of power. Zeus would not have the mighty lightning bolt. Apollo and Artemis, divine twins, would not have their spectacular archery sets. Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war, would not have her infamous spear. MINT XXI engraved its own patron on the 3 oz silver coin. The technique of high relief conveys in detail all the power of Hephaestus. The Greek god possessed an extraordinary gift: the ability to craft anything imaginable. Selective gilding transmits the power of fire, while the spirit of his volcanic firepower is forever engraved into the 55 mm coin.
