A commanding addition to an internationally acclaimed program, we are delighted to announce the launch of the second issue of the Heraldic Beasts Series – the Lion 2025 $1 Rose Gold-plated 1oz Silver Proof!
The King of the Beasts, the lion symbolises power, courage, strength and nobility. Such attributes have naturally made it one of the most popular heraldic emblems. The lion has been employed for hundreds of years by rulers in regions of what are now the countries of Germany, Belgium, Czechia, Norway and Denmark, to name but a few, and has been associated with Britain since the 12thcentury. One of the most famous British kings, Richard the Lionheart, was the first monarch to employ the Three Lions motif, and this iconic symbol remains the Arms of England today.
Breathing new life into this beloved medieval emblem, the Heraldic Beasts Lion 2025 $1 Rose Gold-plated 1oz Silver Proof radiates grandeur and power in equal measure. A masterpiece of modern heraldic art, the crown-sized flan is adorned with a razor-sharp portrayal of a crowned lion, guarding a shield emblazoned with Britain’s Three Lions. Capturing the essence of the heraldic lion in pure precious metal, each coin is struck to the pinnacle of Proof quality from 99.9% silver, with the lion and the shield precisely finished in luxurious rose gold.
