Buy 1 oz Silver Round .999 – Anne Stokes – Skull Embrace
This dazzling silver round from Anonymous Mint is the fifth of six in the epic Anne Stokes Dragons series. The design has been featured on multiple products before, and is currently the image the artist uses for her Facebook page. However here it’s been brought to a whole new dimension, with popular sculptor Luigi Badia making this .999 silver round appear almost 3D to the eye.
The design features a cunning red dragon menacingly wrapping itself around a human skull, its scaled tail and spiked digits almost wrapping it up completely. The creature’s magnificent wings are curled upwards behind it, detailed here in stunning colorization. You’ll want to be quick if this one’s caught your eye, or you’re completing the whole collection. This 1 oz colorized Skull Embrace coin is available in a limited mintage of 2000.
The reverse side features the iconic dragon as designed by the artist, alongside her name, the Dragons series marker and the coin’s precious metal contents. The collection was manufactured at Osborne Mint, the oldest private mint in the USA. The six designs available in the series are: Friend or Foe, Kindred Spirits, Noble Dragon, Water Dragon, Skull Embrace and Fierce Loyalty.
The fantasy art of Anne Stokes features life-like portrayals of art themes ranging from the romantic and mystical to the dark underworld of gothic subjects. Originally from London, England, Anne Stokes began her career as a merchandise designer for bands including the Rolling Stones and Queen. Her early illustrations were also featured in Dungeons and Dragons. Today Anne continues to produce and expand the ranges of her highly acclaimed artwork.
