2016 Ajax Greek Hero – Courage 1oz Silver Bullion Coin – Modern Ancients

Our Ajax is 1 oz of .999 fine silver, crafted with a striking image of the hero poised in battle. It’s truly an epic silver round featuring an epic hero. When you hold one of them, you’ll appreciate its high quality – and the fact that it comes at bullion pricing.

Ajax coins were first minted over two thousand years ago in Opus, a burgeoning city on the shores of the Aegean Sea. This is where, according to legend, Ajax departed with 40 ships to fight the epic Trojan War.

The Trojan War is important to the Greeks because it defined who they were as a people. It marked their passage from a loose band of tribes into a powerful civilization that forever changed the world.

And Ajax was a big part of why they won the war.

He was as daring and brash a warrior as he was brilliant. Much like General Patton but instead of carrying Colt 45s, he was on the frontlines — armed with a bronze sword and wooden shield.
