Buy Myths and Legends Silver Coins – Arthurian Heroes and Ancient Legends in Fine Silver

The Myths and Legends silver series from the Royal Mint brings the great figures of British and European mythology to limited-edition fine silver collector coins. With 14 products at CelticGold – the most extensive Royal Mint collector silver programme in the range – the series covers Arthurian legends (King Arthur, Merlin, Guinevere, the Knights of the Round Table), Robin Hood, and characters from Norse and Celtic mythology in high-relief 999/1,000 fine silver.

The Arthurian cycle is the richest source of British mythological narrative – the Once and Future King, the Round Table's fellowship, the quest for the Holy Grail, the sword Excalibur drawn from the stone – and has inspired literature, art and film continuously since Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae of 1136. Royal Mint artists bring extraordinary sculptural detail to these subjects, creating collector coins that function as miniature works of art alongside their silver investment value.
