Introducing the eighth coin of the Myths and Legends series

Enter a world of mythical heroes and fierce battles. The second coin in a three-part collection inspired by the epic poem "Beowulf" pays tribute to the legendary character from this masterpiece of Old English literature. Struck in the finest 999 silver, this coin depicts the dramatic battle between Beowulf and Grendel's mother - a depiction masterfully designed by David Lawrence. This coin is a true gem for collectors and investors alike.

The poem "Beowulf", which scholars date to between the 8th and 11th centuries, is the longest surviving work in Old English. It tells the story of Beowulf, a hero who battles monsters and dragons. The poem contains not only action scenes but also profound allegories that explore the eternal struggle between good and evil. These Christian themes are reflected in Beowulf's role as hero and defender.
