            To celebrate the architectural marvel and grandeur of the historical landmark, GOLDQUEST International Ltd and B.H. Mayers Mint Germany proudly present the Coliseum Commemorative Coin, another precious numismatic treasure in the Wonders of the World Series, available in the Advantage Collection World. Exquisitely minted by B.H. Mayers Mint Germany, the special offering is intricately designed to capture the splendour of the Roman Coliseum on proof 5 oz fine silver coin with gold inlay showing the Coliseum from a birds eye view. The glory of the Roman Empire is part of history but the prestige of its ancient grandeur will be forever treasured in this impressive numismatic masterpiece.

           Grandly constructed during the reign of Emperor Vespasiano and taking 10 years of painstaking labour and venerable endeavour to turn the gracious dream into the remarkable grandeur in 80 A.D., the Coliseum was perfectly designed to stage, in the most practical and efficient way, spectacles and various forms of public entertainment. Boasting the architectural genius, the famous landmark was capable of holding 50,000 spectators, featuring approximately 80 entrances, and a height of about 160 ft. For centuries, the stadium had served as a faithful entertainment centre of Rome by hosting such events as gladiator fights, mock naval battles and exotic animal combats. After the Roman Empire fell, the stadium had suffered from extensive damage and has been gradually restored. Even in its present state of ruin, the Coliseum is today the most recognisable symbol of Rome and a world-renowned tourist attraction.

            Magnificently reflecting the past glory of the Roman Empire, the Coliseum is one of the greatest architectural monuments and the largest structure of its kind in the ancient world that proudly withstands the test of time and bears witness to the empires splendour and prosperity.
