Venezuela is blessed with magnificent, diverse geography. It has Caribbean islands, rivers, marshlands, mountains, glaciers, highlands, grasslands (los llanos), deserts, canyons, mesas, forests, and jungles.
This beautiful Venezuela coin features the coat of arms which was officially adopted in 1836 and modified in 2006. It features a shield that is divided into the colors of the National Flag. The red displays wheat, which represents the union of the 20 States of the Republic existing at the time, and the wealth of the Nation. The yellow depicts weapons (a sword, a sabre, and three lances) and two National Flags, which are tied by a branch of laurel, as a symbol of triumph in war. The blue shows a wild white horse running free, an emblem of independence and freedom.
Above the shield are two crossed cornucopias (horns of plenty), pouring out wealth. The shield is flanked by an olive branch and another of palm, both tied at the bottom of the coat with a large band that represents the national tricolor.
Due to the nature of coins changing luster with elements of air and moisture, to keep these coins looking shiny, they have been cleaned, polished, and coated with a jewelry grade protectant so they will not oxidize/tarnish.
