In ancient Greek mythology, Zeus was worshipped as the supreme ruler of Mount Olympus and the Pantheon of gods that lived there. He was the god of the sky and weather, law, justice, morals and fate, and the spiritual leader of both gods and men.
Zeus seized control from the Titans and divided the universe between his siblings. Zeus took control of the heavens, Poseidon the sea, and Hades the underworld.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 1,500 of the 2014 Gods of Olympus – Zeus 2oz Silver High Relief Coin. The coin is issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu.

DESIGN
The coin’s reverse depicts a bearded Zeus rising up into a stormy sky wielding his thunderbolt and sceptre with an eagle flying above his shoulder. The design includes the inscription ZEUS and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
The coin’s obverse portrays the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the monetary denomination and the 2014 year-date.
To capture the depth and detail of the design, the coin is struck in high relief to a rimless format and features an antique finish.
