Description
A rare and historically significant set of four vintage bronze minting molds, including one exceptional die featuring the portrait of King Hussein bin Talal of Jordan, ruler from 1952 to 1999. This particular mold likely dates from the 1960s–1970s, when commemorative medals and official insignias were produced to celebrate national milestones of the Hashemite Kingdom. The detailed engraving captures King Hussein in military uniform, symbolizing his decades of leadership and modernization of Jordan.
The remaining three molds feature distinct motifs — one depicting a lion’s head, and two smaller dies bearing classical and heraldic faces, each finely crafted and aged with a deep, authentic patina. Together, they illustrate the artistry and precision of mid-20th-century minting techniques used across the Middle East.
These molds were likely part of a royal or institutional minting workshop, used for striking medallions, awards, or ceremonial emblems. Their solid bronze construction and preserved engraving detail make them a museum-quality collector’s set, ideal for enthusiasts of Jordanian royal history, numismatics, or antique mint craftsmanship.
