The Chess Pawn – ‘the soul of the game’!
An eye-catching addition to an internationally-acclaimed program, the latest in the Chess Silver Series celebrates ‘the soul of the game’ – the Pawn!
Representing the ‘foot soldier’ of Chess, the Pawn is the weakest piece on the board. However, no war was ever won by kings, queens and generals alone! Far from being mere fodder for more powerful pieces, the forward-marching Pawn is the basis for attack, vital in dictating the strategy of a game, and crucial to gaining a foothold in the centre of the board. In addition, the concept of ‘promotion’ – where a Pawn can transform into a stronger piece, such as a Queen, if it crosses the entire board – embodies ambition and potential, and the idea that anyone can rise from humble beginnings to greatness through persistence and strategy.
Capturing the strength, discipline and resilience of the soldier of the chessboard, this official legal tender issue is an exquisite work of numismatic art. Struck from 99.9% pure silver, and enhanced with a rich Black Proof finish, each coin depicts a row of pawns standing upon the chequered patterns of a chessboard, ready for battle. The perfect finishing touch, the Pawn in the foreground carries a sword with a Pawn-shaped handle, and wears a decorative strap with a Pawn motif!
With the limited edition restricted to a mere 999 coins – each set within a plush case with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity – don’t delay your order. It’s your move.
