Crown Your Collection With The Regal Czech Lion!
When The Czech Mint decided to strike its first-ever silver bullion coin in 2021, it settled upon a dynamic theme for its initial entry to put forth on the world stage: the national symbol of the Czech Republic itself, a regal-looking double-tailed lion! The heraldic beast now returns for a fourth year—and now this spectacular coin struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver can be part of your collection!
Crown Your Collection With A Saintly Bohemian Lion
The regal and powerful lion on this new, one-year-only design, shows the face of the Czech lion wearing the crown of St. Wenceslas. Wenceslas I was the Duke of Bohemia from 921 until his death in approximately 935. According to legend, he was assassinated by his younger brother, Boleslaus the Cruel. Due to his martyrdom, Wenceslas received sainthood and was posthumously declared to be king and patron saint of the Czech state. He is the subject of the well-known Christmas carol “Good King Wenceslas,” traditionally sung on December 26 in commemoration of Saint Stephen’s Day.
The lion became part of Bohemian heraldry thanks to the legendary story of Prince Bruncvik. According to the tale, Bruncvik was a mythical prince who traveled to Africa, where he helped a lion defeat a dragon. It’s one of the most famous stories of how the exotic lion became symbol of the Czech Republic. And, while a decidedly Czech theme, this coin is actually $2 legal tender in Niue, a small island nation in the South Pacific Ocean that licensed that these coins be struck by the Czech Mint.
