High quality South African gold with an amazing historical background!

Just a simple snail shell? The Money Cowry is much more than that. Dating back to 1200 BC, money cowries were widely used as currency around the world, on almost every continent. Now, the attractive advantages of this ancient currency, a humble snail shell, have been replicated in pure .9999 gold.

The Money Cowry, or Cypraea Moneta, was reportedly used as a liquid asset as recently as the middle of the 20th century.  Now in available in .9999 fine gold, the 10 gram gold cowry improves upon its fragile ancestor’s advantages. Pure gold in small denominations is especially desirable due to its convenience, durability, incredible value and very small size.
