### Tears of the Moon 2 Oz Silver - Antique Finish - Innovative Design with a dome in the coin's centre - Dome containing silver particles - Mintage only 2,500 pieces - With Certificate of Authenticity - Delivery in a Inca-styled Box This extraordinary antique finish coin was struck by the **Perth Mint** from two ounces of 99.99% pure silver. The middle of the silver coin features a **dome insert containing silver particles**. The dome is surrounded by representations of **ancient Inca goddess Mama Quilla**. Known as the Goddess of the Moon, Mama Quilla was an important deity for the people of the ancient Inca Empire in South America in the 12th centuary AD. Revered for preventing the world falling into complete darkness, Mama Quilla was believed to shed silver tears that fell to earth and could be mined as precious metal. All coins have been individually 'antiqued' and as a result of this treatment, the appearance of each coin may vary. The **'Tears of the Moon' antique finish coin** is delivered in a case moulded in the shape of Mama Quilla’s face. Her lower lip opens like a drawer to display the coin enclosed.
