This is a collection of silver coins struck by the Franklin Mint starting 1973. Each coin is 1000 grains (about 2.1 ounces) Stirling silver. The obverse depicts a work of art while the reverse identifies the work. Ancient and Renaissance artwork seemed to be preferred. The set comes in a specially designed chest (20 coins per drawer). There is also a book with a picture of each coin describing each artwork.
