This Egypt 5 pounds silver coin, issued in 1994 (AH1415), is part of the celebrated “Ancient Treasures” series and is dedicated to the powerful and enigmatic god Seth, one of the most complex deities in ancient Egyptian mythology. Struck in fine silver and graded NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo, this coin features exceptional contrast between frosted relief and mirror-like fields.

The obverse presents a striking full-length depiction of Seth, shown standing in a traditional pose, holding a long staff. The deity is recognizable by his distinctive animal-headed form, with elongated snout and upright ears. His body is adorned with patterned garments and detailed textures, while the clean reflective background enhances the sculptural effect. A decorative border frames the composition, emphasizing its classical style.

The reverse features the denomination “5 LE” alongside Arabic inscriptions and the central inscription “ARE.” Above appears a stylized lotus flower, while below is the Egyptian eagle with outstretched wings. The dual date AH1415–1994 is clearly displayed along the rim, surrounded by ornamental elements and a patterned border.

Seth, associated with strength, chaos, storms, and the desert, played a crucial role in Egyptian mythology, often depicted as both a protector and a challenger of order. This coin captures his symbolic power and ancient legacy.

A superb high-grade proof coin with deep cameo contrast, ideal for collectors of mythology, ancient Egypt, and certified numismatics.
