My 2021 Coins: Allegories

avatar

An allegory is a personification of abstract ideas. Or it may be picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one. Or a symbol, a sign, a representation.

In this case it is the personification of countries. A series of coins called “The Allegories” celebrates the extraordinary figures of “mothers of nations”. The coins in the “The Allegories” series, Germania meets with legendary national personifications in symbolic circumstances. Source

These ones were minted by the Germania Mint. Aren't they pretty? It is a series of coins which they started in 2019, first with two coins, 2020- another coin, and in 2021 another. Unfortunately I don;t have the Germania and Italia... when I find it, I shall show it!
Thank you, @tibaire, for taking an interest in these coins.
You know, you can save in silver and gold... one coin at a time!

Interesting Allegory coins add another category/classification to make stacking real wealth exciting!😊 Did you post the Reverse of this coin, I can’t see it on my IPhone……

Ummm... the reverse of these three coins are in the last photo!
But just in case, here it is:
img_0337_2_.jpg

They are the same but sure is very pretty!
The description below is taken from Apmex:

The Crowned shield on the reverse bears many traditional meanings, precisely defined by heraldry:
Top left corner of the crest features the Germania Mint's Bicephalous eagle - a Roman mythology symbol associated with Janus, the god of all origins, guardian of doors, gates, passages and bridges, the patron of contracts and alliances. Heads facing the opposite symbolize the past and the future.
Right upper corner: decorated with a check pattern that refers to wisdom and prudence.
Left bottom corner: features three flowers on a ribbon. They hide three values determining a strong and independent nation - unity, integrity and freedom.
Right bottom corner: depicts a Wild Boar. A very popular and well-respected animal in the Roman Empire, symbolizing might and power. At least three famous Roman legions are known to have had a boar as their emblem: Legio I Italica, Legio X Fretensis and Legio XX Valeria Victrix.

So complex a crest!

Some coins are limited in productions and some coins don't make it at all in the US market or if they do, it is for special sizes only. These ones are a hit and miss. The 2020 Germania never made it here, but maybe it did, and I just missed it.
Thanks @tazi! Stack on!!!

Yes, even here in the US, they are hard to find. I believe the mints of Germany have a lot of coins. Even the Lunar coins and the African coins are first available in that market, before the US.
Hugs and Kisses, sis 🤗🌷
