LADY MICTE - FIGURES OF DEATH - 2 OZ 2000 FRANCS SILVER COIN CAMEROON 2025

Figures of Death is a collection of six coins dedicated to cultural representations of Death throughout the world. This second release honors Lady Micte — short for Mictecacihuatl, the Aztec goddess of Death, eternal guardian of souls, and inspiration for Mexico’s Día de los Muertos.

Adorned with an elaborate feathered headdress, golden ornaments, roses, and skull motifs, she embodies both beauty and mortality. Her painted face recalls the calavera tradition, while the human skull in her hand symbolizes the eternal bond between life and death.

The obverse highlights Lady Micte in high relief with selective coloring, enhancing the powerful aura of this mythical figure. On the reverse, a majestic altar skull dominates the scene, surrounded by flowers, candles, and dancing skeletons. At the center, a clock frames the denomination, reminding us of the relentless passage of time and the celebration of life even in death.

This 2 Oz Silver coin features an Antique Finish, intricate high-relief engraving, and subtle applications of color — a timeless tribute to one of the most beautiful personifications of Death.

Each coin is delivered in a luxurious engraved wooden book-shaped box and accompanied by a Tarot card-style Certificate of Authenticity. Mintage is strictly limited to only 250 pieces worldwide.
