The obverse of the 2025 2 oz Antique Silver Genovese Crime Family Coin showcases the Chadian coat of arms at the center. The design follows a playing-card theme, reflected in the coin’s rectangular shape, and includes guns in the corners with blood drops replacing the usual suits of spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds.

On the reverse of 2025 Antique Republic of Chad Silver Genovese Crime Family Coins, you’ll find a depiction of members of the Genovese crime family, set against an Ace of Spades backdrop. Originally known as the Morello crime family and later as the Luciano crime family, the Genovese family formed in the 1890s within New York City’s Italian-American communities. Its early foundations were laid by Giuseppe “Joe the Boss” Morello, one of the first major Mafia figures in America.

The family was renamed after Vito Genovese, who took control in 1957 following an assassination attempt on the then-leader, Frank Costello. Though Costello survived and retired, Genovese’s leadership solidified the family as one of the most powerful in the U.S. Known for its secrecy and sophisticated operations, the Genovese family earned the nickname “the Ivy League of organized crime” and pioneered the use of “front bosses” to shield true leadership from law enforcement.

The 2025 2 oz Antique Republic of Chad Silver Genovese Crime Family Coins feature ultra-high-relief strikes and selective 24-karat gold layering. The obverse features gold detailing on five emblems, while the reverse showcases gilded guns and a cigar. Each coin comes in a presentation box with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
