Queen Hatsheosut was the first significant female ruler in documented history. Born in 1507 BC, Hatshepsut came to the throne of Egypt in 1478 BC. Officially, she ruled jointly with Thutmose III, who had ascended to the throne the previous year as a child of about two years old. Hatshepsut declared herself king sometime between year 2 and 7 of the reign of her stepson and nephew, Thutmose III.
This seven-ton granite Sphinx of Hatshepsut has the body of a lion and a human head wearing a head-cloth and royal beard. The statue has the usual symbolic, powerful muscles of the lion and the idealized face used for pharaohs. This sphinx is one of a number of granite sphinxes that once stood in Hatshepsut’s mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahri.
Hatshepsut means "Foremost of Noble Ladies" and the queen was just as such. Scottsdale Mint has brought this Egyptian art to life by creating a modern coin with the feel of an ancient relic utilizing 5 oz of pure Silver with a beautiful antique finish.
