Bhutan Kingdom: 300 Takin Silver 1993

Description

House of Emirates® in London is thrilled to offer its elite clientele with this majestic Bhutan Kingdom 1993 300 Ngultrum (Takin) Silver (.925) coin — a great investment-grade product that beautifully unites royal heritage, spiritual symbolism, and endangered wildlife conservation in one exceptional numismatic masterpiece.

Issued by the revered Kingdom of Bhutan in 1993, this remarkable silver coin is struck in solid .925 sterling silver, weighing an impressive 31.51 grams with a commanding 38 mm diameter. With a strictly limited mintage of only 10,000 pieces worldwide (KM 67), it stands as a highly collectible and increasingly scarce treasure sought after by discerning investors and collectors alike.

A Tribute to Bhutanese Sovereignty & Sacred Symbolism

The obverse radiates with regal authority, proudly displaying the inscription “KINGDOM OF BHUTAN” alongside the dual date 1993. At its heart lies an intricate representation of Bhutan’s sacred emblem — a mesmerizing composition of intertwined dragons encircling the Vajra (thunderbolt), symbolizing spiritual power, divine protection, and the indestructible nature of truth. The artistry reflects Bhutan’s deep-rooted Buddhist heritage and the nation’s unique philosophy centered on harmony and Gross National Happiness.

The elaborate detailing is sharply struck against a mirror-like proof background, creating dramatic contrast and elevating the coin’s aesthetic appeal to museum-worthy standards.

The Majestic Takin — A National Symbol of Bhutan

The reverse features the magnificent Takin, Bhutan’s national animal, under the title “ENDANGERED WILDLIFE.” Known scientifically as Budorcas taxicolor, the Takin is a rare and powerful mountain ungulate native to the Eastern Himalayas. With its muscular stance and textured coat rendered in exquisite relief, the engraving captures the strength and quiet dignity of this extraordinary creature.

The denomination “300 NGULTRUM” curves elegantly along the lower rim, reinforcing its sovereign legal tender status within Bhutan. The Takin’s portrayal is not only a tribute to wildlife conservation but also a celebration of Bhutan’s natural heritage and ecological commitment.
