Poland Mint at Art in Coins

This 2019 Nizaris edition is the first release in what we hope to be an ongoing new series from the Poland mint titled “The Assassins”.  The Nizaris is dedicated to the Order of Assassins originating from the medieval Middle East.  This exciting new issue takes advantage of Poland Mint’s best selling coin specs.  A full 2 ounce, 50 mm diameter .999 silver coin with exceptional detail and an incredible high relief strike.  Top it all off with discreet gold applications and a rich antique finish, this is sure to be an immediate world wide sellout.

Background:

Assassins (Arabic Ḥashīshiyya or Ḥashīshiyyīn, singular Ḥashīshī) is the name given to the Nizari Ismailis in the mountains of Persia and Syria between about 1090 to 1275. The name was not used by the Nizaris themselves, but was given to them by their opponents in Syria. Nizarism formed in the late 11th century after a split within Ismailism, a branch of Shia Islam.
