2025 Cook Islands 5oz Silver Samurai

Following the knight's tremendous success, the next formidable fighter, the samurai, follows. A samurai was a member of the warrior class in feudal Japan, which played a central role in Japanese society from around the 12th to the 19th century. Samurai were highly skilled warriors who were sworn to the daimyō (feudal lord) for their service. They wore special armor and were experts in the use of weapons, especially the katana, a curved long sword that was considered a symbol of their class.

The samurai followed a strict code of honor, Bushido, which emphasized discipline, courage, respect, and loyalty. Today, they represent discipline, honor, and the art of martial arts around the world. Their history inspires literature, film, and pop culture.

This ultra-high relief coin exceptionally captures the intricate details of the armor and the determined, fearsome gaze of the fighter, making him a very real opponent. And all of this in proof quality and with partial nanoshine elements.
