DESCRIPTION
My coins have been used in the productions of "Shakespeare in the Park" in New York City's Central Park, The Canadian production company for the Percy Jackson movie "Sea of Monsters", The TV series "Elementary" and several museums sell my coins in their gift shops. ZEUS is king of the gods, ruler of Mt Olympus, and god of the sky. Zeus would be considered a real "player" in today's world. He had several wives and many lovers. If you threw a rock in ancient Greece, you would probably hit one of his lovers. His union with Demeter the Goddess of the harvest, resulted in the birth of twins; Apollo and his sister Artemis. His symbols were the thunderbolt, eagle, bull and oak. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades drew lots for the Earth, in which Zeus got the sky, Poseidon the sea and Hades was left with the underworld.
