A haunting piece of numismatic art, capturing the essence of one of the great works of Gothic horror literature, we are delighted to present The Raven 2025 $5 2oz Silver Black Proof!

Poet, author and critic, Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) is an icon of American literature. First published in January 1845, Poe’s most renowned work is The Raven. Telling a tale of death, grief and eternal devotion, The Raven details the laments of a young scholar, who, reeling from the death of his lover, is visited by a talking raven. A deeply melancholic, evocative work, well-known for the iconic refrain of the raven – “Nevermore” – this Gothic horror masterpiece is considered by many to be one of the world’s most famous poems.

An official legal tender issue, The Raven 2025 $5 2oz Silver Black Proof celebrates the 180^th anniversary of the first publication of this American classic. Struck from 99.9% pure silver, the broad 55mm flan plays host to a detailed depiction of the raven and the statue of Pallas Athena upon which the raven sits in Poe’s poem – “above my chamber door.” Bringing a dark, foreboding edge to an unforgettable commemorative issue, the use of a deep, rich Black Proof finish is an inspired touch.
