The Faerie Queene Collection is a new series of precious metal coins inspired by Edmund Spenser’s epic medieval poem. The series will tell stories of knights, princesses, mythical beasts, magical villains, honour, betrayal, love and loss, all brought to life by one of the world’s most celebrated coin designers, Joel Iskowitz.
The new Serie tells the story of the Redcrosse Knight and his quest to rescue the lady Una’s parents from an evil dragon. As the pair approached the tower where Una’s mother and father were held captive the dragon reared high over their heads, its wings spread wide to block out the sun and its writhing vastness covered in tightly laced scales that seemed to offer no hope of wounding it. Despite the dragon’s size and apparent invincibility Redcrosse attacked, a dramatic scene captured in an exclusive new design by the celebrated coin and medal artist Joel Iskowitz which reflects the illustrative storytelling of the medieval period.
