The 1839 Una and the Lion image had been one of the most revolutionary coin designs ever issued in Britain. It had been crafted in honor of the first anniversary of Queen Victoria and featured on the 5 Pound Sterling gold coin. Generations later, it has birthed one of the most exquisite coin collections that is helmed by the reputable partnership of Saint Helen and the East India Company who have taken it upon themselves to continue the legacy. Today, JM Bullion offers you the 2023 1 oz Proof St. Helena Silver Una and the Lion Coin!
Coin Highlights:
This gorgeous silver coin is the latest from the Faerie Queene Series featuring Una and the Lion. The groundbreaking story of Una and the Lion starts with Una portrayed as a lonely woman who lives out her days in a shaded woodland. Her peace became threatened when a hungry lion decided to jump at her with no one to defend the princess. The story offers an unexpected plot twist when the lion becomes enthralled by her beauty and instead of attacking her, offers comfort and kisses to the beguiling princess. For the rest of her life, the lion stuck by her side as her protector and companion.
For the obverse field of the 2023 1 oz Proof St. Helena Silver Una and the Lion Coin, the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II is featured. This right facing portrait is helmed by Jody Clark who updated the Fourth Portrait with a more timeless and modern take. Her Majesty offers more of her shoulder and neckline for viewers to see. The inscriptions on this side of the coin detail the date of issue, the issuing country and the face value of the coin.
For the reverse field of the 2023 1 oz Proof St. Helena Silver Una and the Lion Coin, the beautiful image of Una and the Lion is featured. This design depicts Una as a woman of endowed with so much beauty. She lays in a low meadow while stroking the mane of a mighty lion who watches her lovingly. The inscription “the Faerie Queen” is found at the top edge of the coin.

"It's a beautiful proof coin, but I was disappointed to find that the white OGP presentation box is rather dirty. Especially for a 2023 coin. No scuff marks from poor handling, but simply a light coat of "dust" all over - top, sides, even the bottom. Evidently, the item was not stored in a clean environment nor was it placed in a plastic bag for protection from dirt and dust."
