Gaze Into The Large, Expressive Eyes Of The Ocelot
With its piercing gaze and silent movements, the ocelot prowls through the shadows, a stealthy hunter embodying the forest’s untamed spirit and the lurking threat of nature’s raw power. Here you can try your hand at staring down one of these deadly beasts on this Obsidian Black colorized two-ounce silver coin that paints a harrowing picture of this feline predator native to the southwestern United States, Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Margarita.
Fabulous Ultra High Relief Design Captures The Ocelot’s Nocturnal Nature
Struck in two full ounces of highly pure 99.99% silver, this coin pays tribute to one of the world’s most fearsome wildcats. The coin’s rich obsidian black colorization is as lustrous as it is secretive. That’s because Germany’s world-renowned Mayer Mint has not yet revealed the formula behind this process. What’s more, this coin was struck with unbelievable Ultra High Relief detail using Coin Invest Trust (CIT) SmartMinting® technology. The combination of the Ultra High Relief, super black finish, and the Ocelot’s extremely realistic eyes has made this coin, the fifth in the “Hunters by Night” series, an instant success!
The Revered “Field Tiger” Of Central And South America
A medium-sized wildcat, ocelots hunt at night, and, unlike other cats, they are good swimmers and will often hunt for fish. Their large, expressive eyes are especially adapted for night vision, and their sharp, retractable claws make them excellent climbers and hunters. Since they are not known to attack humans, some people have tried to make pets out of these wild animals. But like any wildcat, this is not recommended. In Mesoamerican folklore, the ocelot is often revered as a symbol of strength and cunning, embodying the qualities of a skilled hunter and protector of the forest. Many cultures attribute mystical powers to the ocelot, seeing it as a guardian spirit that guides and watches over those who respect the natural world. The word “ocelot” is thought to come from the Aztec word tlalocelot, which means “field tiger.” The Maya believed that ocelots could move between the living world and the spirit world. This may be due to the ocelot's ability to hunt both day and night.
