Egyptian Cartouche 1/10 oz Fine Silver $130
This Egyptian Cartouche silver round is a meticulously crafted fractional bullion piece weighing 1/10 troy ounce and struck in .999 fine silver. The central design features a traditional Egyptian cartouche, an oval enclosure historically used to signify royal lineage, containing various hieroglyphic symbols. Surrounding the cartouche are intricate lotus flower motifs and ornate scrollwork that border the edge of the round. The piece is clearly hallmarked with 999 FS to denote its high purity and 1/10 OZT to indicate its weight. These rounds are highly sought after by collectors who appreciate ancient world aesthetics combined with the tangible value of precious metals. This specific item is presented in a protective clear plastic flip with a labeled inventory tag, ensuring the preservation of its mirrored finish and fine details. Historically, cartouches were believed to protect the pharaoh from evil spirits, making this silver piece a symbolic token of protection as well as a sound financial asset.
Condition: The item appears to be in brilliant uncirculated condition, showing a bright, reflective surface with minimal visible wear or contact marks. It is housed in a clear protective plastic flip. The mint is Monarch Precious Metals, identified by the signature "MPM" crown logo stamped on the surface. The metal content is 1/10 OZT of .999 Fine Silver (FS), as explicitly inscribed on the round. The historical context is a modern bullion piece featuring Egyptian-themed iconography, specifically a cartouche—an oval enclosure representing a royal name in hieroglyphics—surrounded by a decorative lotus petal border and a cobra (uraeus) symbol. The strike type is a standard bullion strike with incuse lettering and symbols. The item is ungraded and remains in its original protective holder.
