Destiny Knights - The Destiny Knights series features designs of a blacksmith, a dragon, a kite shield or a raven on a 2 oz Silver round. These intricate designs look lifelike! Each round features a Knight from the MacIan Clan of Scotland who was seeking revenge against the MacLean Clan who sided with the Spanish Armada and ravaged their land around Tobermory Bay.
In 1588 the Clans MacIan and McDonald of Scotland were ravaged and sacked village by village by the Clan MacLean with 100 mercenaries from the ship San Juan De Sicilia of the Spanish Armada who persuaded the MacLeans to fight with them. When the MacIan and MacDonald reinforcements arrived, the MacLeans and the Spaniards retreated from their burning and sacking.
The Spaniards returned to their ship. Later, the bay was rocked with a huge explosion and the Spaniard's Gold filled galleon sank to the bottom of the sea. Could the Clans MacIan or MacDonald have organized this deed in seeking revenge for the sackings? The story is the stuff of legends and the mystery remains to this day.
