The third coin from the "Greek Titans"series. Rhea is one of the titanids in Greek mythology, the goddess of fertility. The protector of children.  She was considered the daughter of Uranos (Heaven) and Gaia (Earth). In the earliest tradition she was strongly associated with Gaia and Kybele, the Great Mother; in classical mythology she became the parent of many gods and goddesses. She was the sister and wife of Kronos, the mother of Demeter, Hades, Hera, Hestia, Poseidon and Zeus, as well as Dactylus. Her Roman counterpart was Ops. The original centre of her cult was Crete, where according to myth she hid Zeus from Kronos. In art, Rea is usually depicted as a woman in a chariot drawn by two lions, wearing a diadem of defensive towers on her head, sometimes in the same manner as Kybele. In her hands she held an oak branch or wreath and a key. This coin was struck from 2 ounces of silver. It is decorated with mother-of-pearl inserts. The mintage is only 500 pieces worldwide.
