When the Spanish-American war broke out in 1898, Theodore Roosevelt left his post as Assistant Navy Secretary to form a cavalry called the Rough Riders: the rootin'est, tootin'est band of cowboys, college athletes, and Texas Rangers the U.S. has ever known. He took his boys to Cuba and led them to a victory at the Battle of San Juan Hill that won the war. He was even awarded a Medal of Honor for it posthumously in 2001.

The divinity of the scarab beetle in Egyptian culture stemmed from their belief that the sun god Kepri took the form of a scarab beetle. As such, many ancient Egyptians carried scarab amulets or incorporated the motif in decor. This 2 oz fine silver coin replicates these scarab amulets while including numismatic splendors like a partial gold plating, an Antique Finish quality, and genuine crystal insert.

Not Sure How A Coin Drop Works?

We've simplified the process even more to help out. Just follow these steps:

A few minutes before the time of the coin drop, log in to your account on 7kmetals.com.
Click the "Check it out" button in the coin drop box on your account page.
When the timer counts down to zero you'll see the coin drop interface appear. Swipe left until you see (on a touchscreen device), or click on the image (on a computer) of the coin you want.
Click the "I WANT ONE" button underneath the coin description.
Do this for all the coins you want to purchase.

That's it! That's all there is to it!

A few things to note:

THERE IS NO CODE NEEDED!
If there are multiple grades of a coin, you'll need to select the one you want. Make sure it's highlighted. The system defaults to the PF or MS69, so if you want the PF or MS70, you need to select it.

You need to act FAST! The reason we do coin drops is because so many people want a limited number of coins. This is the fairest way we have found to offer these coins. If you see the button underneath a coin flickering between "I Want One" and "Sold Out" it's because people are claiming and then changing their minds about the last few coins.
PRO TIP: People continue to "unshop" throughout the duration of the coin drop. Don't give up if the coin you want sells out in minutes (or seconds!). People will grab them and then change their minds so coins often become available all throughout the drop. KEEP TRYING!
