Description
Step into the world of ancient mythology with the fifth release in the Numismatic Icons series, featuring the legendary Gryphon. With the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle, this powerful mythical creature has long been associated with strength, guardianship, and the protection of precious treasures. Its enduring presence in heraldry and ancient coinage has made the Gryphon one of history’s most recognizable mythical figures.
Inspired by the ancient coins of Abdera, a Thracian city known for its iconic Gryphon coinage, this beautifully detailed 1 oz silver edition brings the imagery of antiquity to life. The Gryphon is accompanied by a cicada, a recurring motif found on numerous ancient Greek coins, while the traditional CI ciphers reference the coin’s ancient origins. Combining classical symbolism with modern craftsmanship, this release offers collectors a striking interpretation of one of antiquity’s most fascinating numismatic icons.
