Afternoon everyone ….
I am actually a little behind on this one. I was thinking about a few series that I haven’t seen a new release in quite awhile now.
The first one that came to mind wax the Royal Mint Tudor Beast series. I think it’s been a full year since the last was released. If not it gotta be dam close to that.
The second is the Commanders series which is produced by the Scottsdale Mint with SD Bullion having exclusive rights to the sale of them.
Well….
That got me digging around. I came up empty on the Tudor Beast series. But I found out that I am actually quite late on the last release on the Commander series. The last release was available for nearly two months now. It’s Julius Caesar, and you can bet your ass that I ordered it immediately.
This is going to continue to be a great series. I already know the next release. It was announced today. I will share that shortly.
Here is the description from the Scottsdale Mint website:
Julius Caesar: The Commander's Series - A Tribute to Ambition and Leadership
Julius Caesar is a name that resonates through history for his remarkable and decisive leadership. Rising to prominence in ancient Rome, Caesar faced daunting challenges and formidable foes with unparalleled ambition. His fateful decision to cross the Rubicon River in 49 BC was a bold declaration of war against the Senate, leaving no option for retreat—only a path to power or destruction. This act not only showcased his resolve but also marked the beginning of a dramatic transformation in Roman politics.
The die is cast." - Julius Caesar
This iconic phrase embodies Caesar's fearless determination. Confronting immense opposition, he understood that rallying his legions was vital. By taking this irreversible step, he unified his troops under a singular, relentless mission: to seize control of Rome. His strategic brilliance was further demonstrated through his military campaigns across Gaul, where he forged alliances and utilized innovative tactics to secure stunning victories. These triumphs ultimately led to his ascent as the dictator of Rome and reshaped the course of history.
The Scottsdale Mint Commander's Series honors great leaders like Caesar, whose bold choices and strategic genius have left an indelible mark on civilization. The upcoming coin dedicated to Julius Caesar captures the essence of his ambition and leadership, immortalizing his legacy for generations to come.
Now for the coin reveal….
I have this coin on order right now, just awaiting it to be shipped. When I receive it I will do a proper post on my thoughts seeing it in person.
