In 1922, British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the almost 3,500-year-old tomb of King Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, causing a worldwide sensation. The mummified remains of a young pharaoh supported a fine mask made of gold and ornamented gold. The ancient Egyptians considered the skin of the gods to be gold.

Tutankhamun’s reputation today is based on two factors. First, he went down in history as a rejector of his father’s radical religious reform. Secondly, his tomb was discovered almost completely intact, it is the best preserved royal tomb in ancient Egypt, and that is why historians have gotten to know Tutankhamun better than other kings of Egypt.

    In Greek mythology, Nike was invited to live on Mount Olympus by Zeus, the king of the gods, as a reward for being his charioteer during the Titan War. Guiding Zeus’s horses through the battlefields, she is said to have bestowed fame and glory in the form of laurel wreaths on his victorious army. Since classical times, artists have often portrayed Nike as a winged figure symbolising victory in both war and peaceful competition.

    The coin’s outstanding high relief reverse depicts Nike in Art Deco style. Honouring an unseen hero with a victory laurel in the palm of her right hand, Nike’s muscular figure is enveloped in a beautifully symmetrical representation of feathered wings. Also included on the reverse is the inscription WINGED VICTORY and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
