Receive the Enlightenment of this Amazing Silver Buddha Coin
*Original guilding on this product is worn
Born as a prince almost 2,600 years ago, Siddhartha Gautama was troubled by death, disease and suffering among his people. To find the answers to why this was so, he gave up all of his earthly belongings and began a quest to find the true meaning of life. After years of meditation he finally achieved inner peace and became known as Shakyamuni Buddha – “the enlightened one” – and began teaching throughout ancient India. It was these teachings that became the foundation of what we know today as the religion of Buddhism, the world’s fourth largest religion with more than 520 million followers.
To pay tribute to this amazing man, Mongolia has issued one of the most spectacular Buddha coins ever minted. This shaped legal-tender silver coin is an impressive 43 x 55 mm piece and fully gilded in gold. It was struck in three ounces of 99.9% silver by the Coin Investment Trust (CIT) on behalf of Mongolia. This beautiful coin will also come in gleaming Gem Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition, meaning that it is the product of a superb strike that places your coin firmly among the elite of the run.
Beyond it being shaped instead of round, what really makes the Shakyamuni Buddha Three-Ounce Gilded Silver Coin so impressive is its incredible high relief. Using its patented Smartminting© technology, CIT was able to create a stunning high-relief image of The Buddha as he meditates. Only 501 of these incredible coins have been struck for worldwide release – and they have already been announced as a complete sell-out at the Mint!
Thanks to our connections in the coin world, we were able to secure a handful of these coins and we’re making them available to GovMint.com customers while supplies last. Each comes beautifully displayed in its original government packaging that consists of an elegant presentation case accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

"Amazing service and hospitality from the staff at IDC! Jason was so attentive and patient in our search for our ideal watches. He took us through several options, had us try every watch we were interested in, took our information and continued searching for options. A few hours later, we had our watches on hold and ready for pick up! He located a watch that I LOVE, and a unique piece for my husband. We are grateful to have found our new Jeweler for many pieces to come!"
"We loved our experience at IDC. Jason was very kind and patient with us. My fiancée and I found good options for our wedding bands. He made sure we found what we were looking for and provided all the details we needed, including comfort, value, and style. We also felt safe and comfortable at their shop, thanks to the double doors and security guard."
"Jason was absolutely amazing! Extremely professional and very knowledgeable in helping us with the ring selection process. We actually ended up taking his advice on the bands and are very happy with our decision. We absolutely enjoyed our wedding band shopping experience and would recommend Jason to future buyers as well!"
"Lila was extremely helpful. My finance and I were on a tight time crunch to get wedding bands and she was very knowledgeable and swift with making sure we had rings for our ceremony. She suggested great bands and was so kind and honest through our selection. I will definitely return to IDC and always ask for Lila!"
