Gold and Silver Bullion Canada is proud to present you this amazing 2 oz Silver coin. This coin is the first coins of a new serie called IMMORTAL HEIGHT and present Lu Dongbin the legendary Immortals.
Lü Dongbin is the best known of the eight immortals and is considered by some to be the real leader, although the official leader is Zhongli Quan. In artistic depictions he appears dressed as a scholar, carrying a sword to ward off evil and a fly-scarer. He is worshipped by the sick and honoured as a scholar. The obverse depicts another part of the residence of the gods and several herons, from the farthest to the nearest, which always accompany the eight immortals, and the effigy of the Public Seal of Niue.
THE IMMORTAL EIGHT (八仙) are a group of legendary xian (“immortals”) in Chinese mythology. Each immortal’s power can be transferred to a vessel that can bestow life or destroy evil. Together, these eight vessels are called the “Covert Eight Immortals”.. Most of them are said to have been born in the Tang or Song Dynasty. They are revered by the Taoists and are also a popular element in secular Chinese culture. They are said to live on a group of five islands in the Bohai Sea, which includes Mount Penglai. Herons always accompany these gods, who are almost always together.
