The great bombard that battered the walls of Constantinople in 1453, known in Turkish as the Conquest Cannon, engraved on 925 sterling silver with its wheeled carriage, its banners and the silhouette of the walls behind it. The reverse carries the breached fortifications, the star and crescent banner flying, and a composition of the siege of Istanbul. Holding the memory of a siege that closed one age and opened another, this collectible medallion was produced with dense relief work.
Why these dimensions?
1 oz is the international standard weight for collectible medallions. Because this piece is struck at 35 mm, it is thicker than wider medallions of the same weight: approximately 3.1 mm. You feel the weight in your hand.
925 sterling means 925 parts in every thousand are pure silver. This is the international standard for jewellery and collector silver. Pure silver on its own is too soft to hold its form.
500 pieces is the total ceiling for this design. Once that number is reached, the die is retired.
Every medallion ships within 3 business days with its certificate of authenticity and presentation box.
