The cat design here has great detail and this detail is picked up perfectly by the ultra-high relief. The ornate design elements on the cat that are clearly inspired by Egyptian art covers the cat from head to tail. The cat is sitting in profile and one can’t help seeing how regal and proud the cat looks. Behind the cat’s head is a kind of sunburst design that radiates in the background. Cats were so much a part of Egyptian culture that they even incorporated them in the artwork honoring their gods. Many of them were depicted having cat heads even. The antique finish makes the detail stand out more with its contrast.
The reverse side of the bar has design elements repeated across it. In the middle is the Argentia mint’s logo. Underneath this logo is ‘5 oz FINE SILVER .9999’.
The Argentia Egyptian Cat 5 oz Silver Bar is a beautiful bar that is a love letter to cats. By incorporating the Egyptian styling in the modern design, the result is a timeless design that honors cats. Like the Egyptians, anyone who has owned a cat can attest that cats carry themselves with an air of royalty and arrogance. This bar captures that aloofness in gorgeous .9999 fine silver. The antique finish gives it a more premium feel. Get yours today.
