Silver Three Ounces 2019 Kalachakra Mandala, Coin from Mongolia
CoinSilver Three Ounces 2019 Kalachakra Mandala

The currency of Mongolia since 1925 has been the tögrög, which currently circulates mostly as banknotes due to the low value of earlier coins and the reluctance of the government to issue large denomination coins; however, the government has authorised many non-circulating legal tender (NCLT) coins to be issued for collector's purposes.

Collector coins are dedicated to historical or general popular culture themes and are often not related to the country itself. Many of them are in standard bullion sizes, including the large three ounces of silver format.

The Mint says about this coin:
The Kalachakra Mandala coin is the second issue in the Archaeology and Symbolism series and takes the series to ultra relief heights. The impossible has been made possible using the enhanced smartminting technology and brings the Kalachakra Mandala to life.

The Kalachakra mandala is one of the most eye-catching thangka paintings. It is appreciated for the symbolic elements that compose it and the visual representation of essential teachings of traditional Tibetan Buddhism. The Mandala of Kalachakra is visualised in the practitioner’s mind as a three-dimensional palace. However, it also exists in the physical world. A temple situated in Lhasa is a perfect three-dimensional reproduction of the painting. The temple itself contains 722 Deities; in its centre atop a golden lotus throne is a single Buddha: Kalachakra.

Obverse
Mongolia / Silver Three Ounces 2019 Kalachakra Mandala - obverse photo

The obverse of the coin depicts the logo of Mongolbank (the Bank of Mongolia), which is formed as a round coin on a lotus bouquet associated with purity, delicacy and stability. Three fire flames and a blooming flower are located inside the coin. The figure symbolises eternal development and youth and the three flames represent the main national treasures. At the nominal value location the Soyombo symbol is positioned, representative of the Mongol ethnicity. There is a variation from the official logo: the name of the Central Bank of Mongolia is written below the figure as MongolBank in Latin script, and not as МонголБанк in Cyrillic which is the official script of the Mongolian language and the way the name is normally written on the logo.

On the two sides of the logo, vertically, the inscription Mongol Uls in the traditional Mongolian script.

Below the logo, on two lines the face value: 2000 TӨГРӨГ (two thousand Tögrög, alternatively spelled Tugrik).

Around below, the name of the issuing country and the metal content: MONGOLIA 3oz .999 SILVER (three troy ounces of 99.9% silver).

The circle containing the logo and inscriptions is small, and is surrounded by a series of thin concentric lines.
