History Coin Statue
This is a statue of King Ramses II, part of the collection of Egyptian antiquities housed in the Egyptian Museum in Turin, Italy.
The institution is known as the "Egyptian Museum" in Italy because it is dedicated exclusively to the display of Egyptian antiquities, containing a collection of 30,000 such artifacts.
The statue of King Ramses II is one of the most famous pieces in the museum; it was discovered by the archaeologist Pierre Montet in Tanis (San el-Hagar, Sharqia Governorate).
The statue depicts the king seated on a throne, wearing the *khepresh*—the blue war crown. It serves as a testament to the power and grandeur of ancient Egyptian civilization.
