The Double-Headed eagle, an impressive symbol with two heads looking in opposite directions, has been seen in various cultures since ancient times. It first appeared in Mesopotamian and Hittite civilizations around 4000 BCE. The symbol became widely recognized during the Byzantine Empire, where it was adopted by Emperor Constantine to represent the empire’s control over both the East and the West.

The Double-Headed eagle became especially important after the Byzantine Empire and later spread through Europe, where it became a key emblem for the Holy Roman Empire and the Russian Empire under Ivan III in the 15th century. The symbol often represented the ruler’s divine right to govern both spiritual and earthly matters.

On the obverse side of the MK Barz Double-Headed Eagle Silver Round, you’ll find the historic Double-Headed Eagle design. Today, this symbol is still used by countries like Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, and Russia, symbolizing national pride and imperial heritage.
