2025 Samoa $5 2-oz Silver Staff of Hermes Caduceus-Shaped Rotating Proof-Like Coin

Add The Universal Symbol Of Commerce To Your Collection

Often referred to as "Mercury," Hermes is the Greek messenger god known for speed–which led to him being chosen in 1912 for the logo of FTD because his swift superhuman nature aligned with the company's goal of fast flower delivery. His winged helmet also became the iconic headpiece worn by the "Golden Age" Flash that appeared in comic books from 1940 to 1951. What neither of these versions featured, however, was the god's famous Caduceus–the Staff of Hermes. That accoutrement makes a dramatic three-dimensional presentation in this legal-tender piece struck in silver and plated in 24-karat gold! But with only 699 of these legal-tender "coins" released for worldwide release, you'll need to exercise your own burst of speed if you want to make it a part of your personal collection!

Gold Plating And Selective White Enamel

Not to be confused with the Rod of Asclepius, the symbol of medicine which features a single snake entwined around a staff, the Staff of Hermes includes TWO snakes coiling around a winged staff with a sphere on top. The Caduceus was originally associated with heralds, messengers, and diplomacy, not healing. Here it has been crafted in two ounces of highly pure 99.9% fine silver and bears a legal-tender value of $5 in Samoa. And in addition to the gold plating, it features selective white enamel on the wings to further emphasize the staff's representation of balance, harmony, and the ability to transcend boundaries. The Caduceus has been used throughout art history, starting in Ancient Greece, and can be found on Roman coins and is associated with commerce, negotiation, and eloquence.

Interactive Central Coin Rotates 360 Degrees

A central coin is mounted near the top of the staff that shows the bust of Hermes on one side and the Coat of Arms for Samoa on the obverse. This exquisite coin can rotate 360 degrees, offering a dynamic and interactive element to the dramatic presentation. This 2025-dated coin also comes with a gorgeous Proof-Like (PL) finish that further augments its mythological grandeur. The piece will come in a triangular presentation box in which the staff can be mounted so that it stands tall, making it a fascinating display in your home or office that's sure to spark conversation about its meaning and place in history.
