Scottsdale Mint launches its first pair of 2021 Biblical coins as the series enters an epic seventh year

SAMSONJESUS

In news that will please the many fans of Scottsdale Mint’s epic 60-coin, 10-year ‘Biblical Series’ of two ounce silver coins, it’s finally back for 2021. As always, we’re expecting six coins in total through 2021, and to help with the catch-up, Scottsdale are starting this years run with two coins in the first release.

The first coin, the 37th in the series to date, is a cool view of Samson bringing down the temple, while the second is a more sedate affair, called Jesus Delivered. Both pieces are straight from Gustave Dore’s phenomenal body of woodcuts depicting scenes from the Bible.

Both should be available to order nwo, and if you like them, we’d suggest getting in soon as they have a lowered price for the first month after release. As always, we’ve added this pair to our huge profile of the series, so go and check that out if you’re interested.
