Design & Craftsmanship

Pegasus Design: The reverse features the legendary winged horse soaring above a bank of clouds, with stylised rays of sunlight radiating across the background. In Greek mythology, Pegasus is associated with inspiration, creativity and freedom. The detailed composition captures the movement and energy of this celebrated mythological figure.

Shield Design: The obverse displays a central heraldic shield bearing the inscription FREE MARKETS & FREE PEOPLE, flanked by a lion and bull. These animals reference imagery associated with early coinage from the ancient kingdom of Lydia, where some of the earliest struck coins appeared more than 2,500 years ago.

The combination of Pegasus and ancient coinage symbolism reflects the Modern Ancients series' central theme: connecting classical history and mythology with the enduring role of precious metals.

The Modern Ancients series brings together themes from ancient mythology, history and early coinage in contemporary precious metal designs. The Pegasus Silver Round reflects this concept through its mythological imagery and references to early monetary history.
