The Czech Lion has been a symbol of the Czech lands since at least the 12th century. The first recorded use of the symbol dates back to the reign of King Vladislaus II, who ruled Bohemia from 1140 to 1172. The lion was used on the king’s coat of arms and is believed to have been derived from the arms of the Přemyslid dynasty, which ruled Bohemia at the time.
The Crown of St. Wenceslas is a medieval crown that was made in the early 14th century for the coronation of King Charles IV, who ruled Bohemia from 1346 to 1378. The crown was made by a team of goldsmiths and jewelers in Prague, using gold, precious stones, and pearls.
For the obverse of the 2023 1 oz Czech Lion Silver Coin, the mint features the Public Seal of Niue. This is the first appearance of the seal of Niue in this series. With the passing of Her Late Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, Niue is moving to install the Public Seal on bullion coins in 2023.
In the reverse design of 2023 Niue Czech Lion Silver Coins, the Czech Mint depicts the powerful Czech Lion. In this year’s design, the lion is shown looming over the Crown of St. Wenceslas.
These 2023 1 oz Niue Czech Lion Silver Coins are available to you in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The coins are housed in protective flips with plastic rolls for multiples of 25 coins.
