Created by the renowned sculptor Phidias, it was erected in the Temple of Zeus in Olympia, Greece around 435 BCE. The statue depicted Zeus, king of the gods in Green mythology, seated on a magnificent throne. It was crafted primarily from ivory panels mounded to a wooden core, with Gold and other precious materials adorning the statue.The statue stood at an impressive height of around 42 feet and was a symbol for the power and grandeur that was often associated with Zeus. It served as a focal point of worship and a testament to the Greeks' devotion to their gods. Sadly, the statue was lost in a fire in the 5th century CE.

BU coins are a step up from bullion coins, offering more detail. What’s considered Brilliant, Uncirculated, and what’s considered bullion-grade varies from mint to mint. For example, here’s what the U.S. mint states about the difference:At the United States Mint, the term uncirculated refers to the special coining process used to make the coin, which gives it a brilliant finish. Uncirculated coins are manufactured using the same process as circulating coins, but with quality enhancements such as slightly higher coining force, early strikes from dies, special cleaning after stamping, and special packaging. Uncirculated coins may vary to some degree because of blemishes, toning, or slight imperfections, including milk spots and/or slight scratching.
