The Silver Shield Collection focuses on countless concepts and issues which mankind has confronted over the past 500 years or so. Designs such as the Pieces of Eight round have a negative focus which captures death and destruction that colonialism wrought on the world as global powers fought to secure the natural resources of far-flung corners of the globe.
For the 1 oz Trivium Girls Silver Shield Round, the design chosen by the Golden State Mint highlights the fall of the old and the rise of a new order. The idea of the trivium emerged in the Middle Ages as the world sought to put to rest its failing economic and social systems in hopes of bringing about something better for mankind through education. This inevitably led to the Renaissance.
On the obverse of the 1 oz Trivium Girls Silver Shield Round is the design of three women representing the concept of the trivium, the lower division of the seven liberal arts. The women featured in this design represent grammar, logic, and rhetoric. Through these principles, mankind will find a way forward to a new consciousness and hopefully follow the right path.
The woman on the left is Lady Grammar and she listens to all while following none in her quest for truth. The woman in the middle is Lady Logic. She uses her own mind to process information free of mental and physical shackles. Finally, on the right, is Lady Rhetoric. She is unfettered in her nature and heralds a new consciousness for a world free of fear and ignorance.
On the reverse of the 1 oz Trivium Girls Silver Shield Round, you’ll find the image of the Silver Shield. This design encompasses a sword in the very center with an ornate design field around it. The outer rim has flames and there are engravings of the collection, weight, purity, and metal content of the round.
