Morgue Anne
Liberty has risen from the morgue on the 2nd design in the 2017 Zombucks series.
As the apocalypse nears, being well equipped is critical, and Zombucks rounds are now a part of your arsenal.
Following the zombification of the Walking Liberty in August, the Morgan Dollar is the latest to join the living dead. Morgue Anne is the second release in the Zombucks: Currency of the Apocalypse
As the world descends into chaos, each round will be a trusted source of currency, as portable assets with uniquely ghoulish designs.
The original Morgan Dollar was created by George T. Morgan, at a time when the US Mint was revamping its coinage.
Morgan was tasked with developing a new Liberty portrait, and he used Anna Willess Williams as his muse, a woman he believed had the most beautiful profile he had ever seen. Once the coin was complete, it went on to become one of the most popular coins in American history.
Now, Williams’ once beautiful portrait depicts Liberty with rotten skin, dead hair and wilted flowers on the 2017 Morgue Anne round. Liberty is no longer a symbol of freedom, but a sign of a desperate new era. Her teeth, spine and muscles are exposed as she succumbs to the virus.
The reverse of each round features a biohazard symbol and blood splatter, along with the inscriptions CURRENCY OF THE APOCALYPSE, ZOMBUCKS, the Provident Metals compass, and its weight and fineness.
If you’re one of the fortunate few prepared for the end, you know that these rounds are the key to your survival. Each Morgue Anne, which contains 1 oz of .999 pure silver or copper, will be minted through December 31.
A Zombucks round will be released every quarter until the series concludes in 2015, so act while you can.
Because the zombies are coming.
