CIT Coin Invest Copper Terracotta Warriors 50 g - 2021

Information about Copper Terracotta Warriors 50 g - 2021 The Terracotta Army is considered one of the greatest discoveries of the 20th century. This enormous collection of 8,000 sculptures was discovered in 1974 by farmers digging a well and was a world sensation. The excavation uncovered soldiers, horses and carriages. This incredible army was built to accompany the tomb of China's first emperor - Qin Shihuang (259-210 BC) as a guard after death. The most impressive feature is the rows of thousands of individually detailed soldiers. These soldiers were given unique features that represent some of the actual soldiers of their time. Some of the soldiers are powerfully tall, while others wear a stern look on their faces. Still others were given distinctive armour, hairstyles and decorative clothing representing different ranks of soldiers. The soldiers were sculpted in pieces, fired in a kiln like pottery and then assembled and painted. The army lay underground for more than 2000 years until its discovery and is now considered one of the largest archaeological sites in the world. The find was praised as the eighth wonder of the world and declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. CIT Coin Invest has dedicated an exceptional coin to this extraordinary find.
