The Yemen heavily concave, mirrored and frosted lion coin is the most dramatic and best executed piece of numismatic animal life minted in the 20th Century. What a metallic testament to wildlife and the coiners art! Most completely splendid - the king of beasts and the king of coins. This two-riyal piece, catalog KM# 4, offers amazingly bold and attractive contrast and presentability. This coin is sterling, .925 silver, with the 2 Riyals at .7435 ounces of pure silver. This 37mm piece has a mintage of only 4,200 for worldwide distribution. This is a fantastic coin, and an interesting and masterfully unique technical presentation! With this level of artistry, and the low mintage, this popular item is probably a very decent future investment. Truly a major, bold and dramatic piece for an Arabian Peninsula collection, or masterworks of Islamic art.
