A bold new twist on the debut issue of the Samurai Archives series—this 1 oz .999 fine silver coin from Scottsdale Mint brings the legendary Taira no Kiyomori to life with striking selective colorization. While the background remains true to its original brilliant finish, the samurai himself is vividly colorized, adding depth, drama, and visual impact to an already powerful design.
Based on Utagawa Hiroshige’s haunting ukiyo-e artwork, the scene depicts the veteran warrior in solitude, gazing over a wintry landscape as spectral visions of past battles surround him. The colorized detail intensifies his presence, highlighting the emotional weight of legacy, leadership, and reflection.
With a mintage of just 15,000, this legal tender coin from Fiji is a collector’s gem—blending rich Japanese history with modern minting craftsmanship and artistic enhancement.
