Another interesting coin presenting the extremely interesting world of the Far East. It was struck by the famous Australian mint, Perth Mint, from 5 ounces of pure silver. The reverse features an image of Zhao Yun, whose weapons have been coloured to bring them out of the silver background. The coin features the legendary general fighting in the Battle of Changban in 208. On the left side of the reverse are the characters 赵云, meaning "Zhao Yun". The mintage of the coin is strictly limited - only 388 pieces worldwide! Together with a certificate of authenticity, it is packaged in a themed box.  This is the perfect gift for fans of the Far East!  Zhao Yun was a Chinese general during one of the most turbulent and bloody periods in Chinese history. He lived during the late Eastern Han Dynasty and early Three Kingdoms period. He was originally a subordinate of the northern warlord Gongsun Zan, but later began to serve Liu Bei and has since accompanied him on most of his expeditions - from the Battle of Changban (208) to the Hanzhong campaign (217-219). Zhao Yun was an exemplary warrior possessing excellent fighting skills, extraordinary courage and unwavering loyalty.
