Silver coin 1 Oz Seven deadly sins: Pride

Humans are sinful creatures. Temptation lurks at every turn, but there are seven deadly sins that are considered particularly grave. One of them is pride, which is the subject of another silver coin from the collectible series by CIT Coin Invest.

Healthy self-confidence helps us grow, overcome obstacles, and take responsibility for our lives. It allows us to value who we are. However, a problem arises when natural pride and self-respect turn into superiority and contempt for others. That is when pride is born. At first, it seems like a source of strength, but gradually it becomes a wall between us and those around us. The more convinced we are of our own truth, abilities, or moral superiority, the lonelier we become. When pride takes hold of our hearts, we stop listening. We perceive constructive criticism as an attack and well-meaning advice as a challenge to our own worth. We do not want to engage in dialogue, but to judge, and instead of cooperation, we choose competition… Pride cannot simply be suppressed—first, we must recognize it as fear of failure, rejection, and our own inadequacy. Those who understand that a person’s value lies not in infallibility, but in the willingness to admit mistakes and learn, will gain inner freedom. Those who can combine self-confidence with humility will not lose face—on the contrary, they will gain the respect they desire…

The reverse side of the coin depicts pride embodied as a haughty lion standing superiorly on a raised rock. The obverse side bears the name and portrait of King Charles III and the nominal value of 5 DOLLARS (NZD)—that is, the details of the coin’s issuer, which is the Cook Islands.

The mintage consists of 999 pieces placed in an elegant frame, in which you can display this rare coin.
