Honoring Icons: Standard Numismatic Releases Exclusive Collection of Commemorative Coins Featuring Benazir Bhutto

Every now and then, a personality comes along to change the course of history and define a generation. Benazir Bhutto, the first woman to head a democratic government in a Muslim majority country, is that icon for Pakistan. Known as The Daughter of the East, Benazir Bhutto dedicated herself to serving the poor and acted as a pioneer for women empowerment across the middle east in the ‘80s and ‘90s. To honor her legacy and celebrate her greatness, Standard Numismatic is proud to announce the release of their exclusive Benazir Bhutto coin collection, made of 999.9% fine gold and 999 fine silver. 

Benazir Bhutto’s life work paved the way for a new generation in Pakistan. As the first female and the youngest elected leader of the Islamic world at 35 years old, she continually challenged the status quo to create opportunities for all Pakistani people and worked tirelessly as an advocate for change. Serving two terms as Prime Minister of Pakistan from 1988-1990 and again from 1993-1996, Benazir campaigned continuously for anti-corruption, worked to eliminate hunger, provide adequate housing and healthcare, and sought to push Pakistan into the modern age. 

Standard Numismatic, England’s premier privately owned minting company sought to find an innovative way to commemorate legendary figures whilst creating sound investments for collectors around the world; and thus their signature Benazir Bhutto collection was born. The collection consists of 20g silver proof coins, 1 Oz, ½ Oz, and ¼ Oz gold proof coins that come as standard.
