In 2014, The Perth Mint released its first ever antiqued coins in the Gods of Olympus series. The coins were incredibly popular and immediate sell-outs.

To pay homage to a product that popularised the antiqued finish, the iconic Gods of Olympus returned in 2020 in an all-new bullion series. The second issue is dedicated to Poseidon, one of the most important deities in Ancient Greek mythology. He was considered one of the 12 Olympians, the major deities from Greek culture that were believed to inhabit the peak of Mount Olympus. Though some argue the order of the importance of some of these gods, Poseidon is often considered the third most powerful behind his brother, Zeus, and his brother’s wife, Hera. As his realm, Poseidon controls the seas.

The obverse features the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
