This powerful and dramatic 2021 design by Glyn Davies highlights the beauty of Una and the raw power of the lion. It features a stylised representation of Una & the Lion, the lion standing in an aggressive stance with teeth bared and full mane flowing. By his side, exquisite Una gazes down at him with her robes flowing out behind her capturing both her beauty and strength.
The East India Company’s celebrated annual Una & the Lion series continues with this stunning new design by Glyn Davies, offering contemporary collectors a modern twist on the ancient legend of heroic Una and her devoted companion the Lion.
This strictly limited 2oz silver coin has been struck to our highest Proof quality, every detail of the design visible on its impressive 45mm diameter. It is presented in a luxury display case along with its certificate of authenticity.
The story of Una & the Lion is told in the first book of Edmund Spenser’s medieval epic The Faerie Queene, one of the longest poems in British literary history. Una is a beautiful princess who, on a quest to save her mother and father from a cruel dragon is searching for Redcrosse, a noble knight whose destiny is to become St. George, the patron saint of England.
During her journey she faces many challenges that test her humility and determination, including when she is confronted by a fierce lion. Amazed by the sight of her beauty and his rage turns to pity. As Una continues on her quest, the lion becomes her strong guard and faithful companion – keeping her from harm’s way.
Inspired by the history and symbolism of the prestigious pair, East India Company Collections’ exclusive ‘Una and the Lion’ series brings a modern perspective to this historic tale, with a new design released every year and issued as strictly limited editions.
