The exclusive King of the East edition in 1 oz fine silver is dedicated to the majestic predator from the dense forests and vast plains of Asia – the tiger. This coin is the third release in the coveted King Series, following the highly successful first edition *King of the South* and the second edition *King of the North*. The Asian tiger, also known as the Bengal tiger or Royal Bengal Tiger, is the largest living predator and stands for strength, elegance, and untamed power. It inhabits the rainforests, grasslands, and mangroves of South Asia, especially in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bhutan, but also in Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia. Its extraordinary hunting skills make it one of the most feared hunters in the animal kingdom. The tiger is known for its sharp claws, powerful muscles, and agility. As a solitary and territorial predator, it moves skillfully through the jungle and is an excellent swimmer. It is considered one of the most dangerous predators on Earth and the undisputed king of its homeland. In the King of the East edition, this majestic hunter is immortalized in its full strength and elegance.
This extraordinary silver coin is minted in proof quality and comes in a coin case including a numbered certificate of authenticity. Proof (PF) coins are especially sought after by collectors and represent one of the most elaborate minting techniques. The enhanced Smartminting technology used for this special edition was first introduced by CIT Coin Invest at the World Money Fair 2020 in Berlin. It gives the coin an exceptional appearance by combining an Ultra High Relief with proof quality. The worldwide mintage of this exclusive silver coin is limited to only 1,000 pieces.
In a majestic frontal view, the King of the East – the tiger – dominates the obverse of the coin. Its powerful roar, captured in an impressive side profile, echoes through the jungle and the wide plains. The precise and detailed minting in ultra high relief brings the tiger’s dense fur and fine facial features to life. The gaping jaws and sharp teeth emphasize the tiger’s undisputed dominance. A stylized tiger portrait in the background with smooth lines complements its powerful yet elegant aura. The design is rounded off by the inscription "KING OF THE EAST".
With razor-sharp claws, the tiger appears to tear through the coin and grasp the denomination in its powerful grip. The ultra high relief makes the claws stand out from the coin and accentuates the raw power and elegance of the tiger. At the center is the portrait of King Charles III, surrounded by the inscription "CHARLES III", the issuing country "COOK ISLANDS", the face value "5 DOLLARS", and the year "2025". Jungle plants in fine patterns decorate the background, providing a noble frame for the king of the Asian wilderness.
