Created by the renowned sculptor Phidias, it was erected in the Temple of Zeus in Olympia, Greece around 435 BCE. The statue depicted Zeus, king of the gods in Green mythology, seated on a magnificent throne. It was crafted primarily from ivory panels mounded to a wooden core, with Gold and other precious materials adorning the statue.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: initial;\"\u003eThe statue stood at an impressive height of around 42 feet and was a symbol for the power and grandeur that was often associated with Zeus. It served as a focal point of worship and a testament to the Greeks' devotion to their gods. Sadly, the statue was lost in a fire in the 5th century CE. Today, only its descriptions and depictions on ancient coins and artworks remain, reminding us of the greatness and splendor of this extraordinary ancient wonder.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYear of\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eRelease: 2023\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: APMEXclusive® Series\u003cbr\u003eLimited Mintage: 7,777 Rounds\u003cbr\u003eMetal Content: 1 troy oz \u003cbr\u003ePurity: .999 \u003cbr\u003eDiameter: 39 mm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Colonial Acres Coins Bullion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49226996515105,"sku":"WBS-7Wonders.Zeus","price":98.64,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/1744\/7457\/files\/WBS-7Wonders.Zeus-2.jpg?v=1719664202","url":"https:\/\/www.colonialacres.com\/products\/7-wonders-of-the-world-statue-of-zeus-at-olympia-1oz-silver-round-tax-exempt-capsule-scratched","provider":"Colonial Acres Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
