A Work of Art in Silver – Finished in Germany

What makes this edition so special is the combination of a noble base metal and artistic enhancement. The foundation is a pure silver coin with a fine weight of 31.1 grams and an impressive diameter of 40 mm. It is then finished by hand in Germany: the gold-gleaming edge and partially gilded accents lend the piece its unmistakable depth, while the fine colorization brings the lion design to vivid life. Struck in the premium grade Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) and safely protected in a coin capsule.

A lion in silver and gold – a symbol of courage and permanence. This coin tells a story that every collector will want to pass on.

Why This Rarity Belongs in Every Collection

It is the sheer scarcity that makes collectors' hearts beat faster. With a mintage of only 100 pieces, this edition ranks among the absolute rarities in the world of silver coins. Anyone who owns one of these pieces possesses a true collector's treasure. Precisely because only 100 pieces exist worldwide, availability is extremely limited – and this is exactly where what collectors value so highly is created.

• Mintage: Limited to 100 pieces worldwide.
• Finishing level: Colorized, partially gilded, crafted with precision.
• Design impact: The lion as a timeless symbol of strength.
• Collector value: A rarity with character and history.

Silver – the Precious Metal with Tradition and Charm

Silver has fascinated humanity for thousands of years. It served as coinage, a medium of exchange and a symbol of wealth all at once – and continues to enjoy undiminished popularity among collectors to this day. A pleasant side effect for private enthusiasts: profits from the sale of silver are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. This allows the joy of collecting to be combined with a smart financial consideration. If desired, silver can also be viewed as an inflation hedge and as crisis protection – though here, the collector's appeal is clearly the primary focus.

A rare collector's coin like this one unites aesthetics, craftsmanship and rarity in a single piece. The very high appreciation potential that collectors see in such strictly limited editions arises above all from the combination of a small number of pieces and great desirability.
