THE QUEEN’S VIRTUES
This innovative and thought-provoking collection is released in tribute to the ‘Virtues of a Queen’. Virtues which, in all our lives, remain today as important as ever. Issued over three years in gold and silver, the collection features the allegorical personifications of VICTORY, TRUTH, CHARITY, JUSTICE, COURAGE AND CONSTANCY
‘VICTORY’ Our very first coin in this magnificent collection celebrates the Virtue of Victory. Defined as the success or triumph of over - coming an enemy, it is perhaps the most prominent virtue a monarch beholds. Victory signals the end of conflict and is a celebration of peace. The Queen as Sovereign is Head of the Armed Forces and is still the only person able to formally
declare war and, more crucially, an end to conflict. 2021 VICTORY 1OZ SILVER PROOF COIN SELECTIVE GOLD PLATED £124.95 (£104.13 EX VAT) (left)
‘TRUTH’ Truth is the second virtue celebrated in The Queen’s Virtues Collection. Our inspiration is the glad-winged figure of Truth, holding a mirror to Nature to reveal the truth, standing in protection of a child bearing a palm- branch and a seated woman searching in a scroll for the truth. It is said that the Victorian era set the foundation for the basic principle and importance of being and acting truthfully as a core virtue and it can be directly attributed to Queen Victoria herself. Equally Queen Elizabeth II is known to have a compelling sense of herself as a spiritual being who is a searcher and seeker of truth. 2021 QUEENS VIRTUES TRUTH 1OZ SILVER PROOF £99 (£85.50 EX VAT) (left, top) 2021 QUEENS VIRTUES TRUTH 1OZ SILVER PROOF SELECTIVE GOLD PLATED COIN £124.95 (£104.13 EX VAT) (left, bottom)
