The Germania Mint features various historical important elements in the design of their first release of the 'Allegories' bullion round series.
The Crowned shield on the reverse bears many traditional meanings, precisely defined by heraldry:
- Top left corner of the crest features the Germania Mint's Bicephalous eagle - a Roman mythology symbol associated with Janus, the god of all origins, guardian of doors, gates, passages and bridges, the patron of contracts and alliances. Heads facing the opposite symbolize the past and the future.
- Right upper corner: decorated with a check pattern that refers to wisdom and prudence.
- Left bottom corner: features three flowers on a Gold ribbon. They hide three values determining a strong and independent nation - unity, integrity and freedom.
- Right bottom corner: depicts a Wild Boar. A very popular and respectful animal in Roman Empire, which is a symbol of mightiness and power. At least three famous Roman legions are known to have had a boar as their emblem: Legio I Italica, Legio X Fretensis and Legio XX Valeria Victrix.
But why are the names of both countries and their personifications feminine? For millennia, women have been seen as a weaker sex, that should show submission to men. Why national impersonations are women then? There is no unambiguous answer to these questions. It is assumed, however, that people have always identified their homeland with their mother – the first source of food, care and love. Probably that is why terms such as “mother Earth” or “homeland” have found a permanent place both in mass consciousness and in the commonly used language. Although in the overwhelming majority it is still mainly men who are the world leaders, people in times of trial, such as wars or disasters, symbolically turn to the “mother of the nation” for protection and favor.
Treating the country as a metaphor of home and family, nations have always identified their countries with maternal protection, which provided them with a sense of security and community.
Wishing to pay a tribute to them, a series of coins called “The Allegories” was brought to life to celebrate the extraordinary figures of “mothers of nations”, that for centuries have encouraged people in the hardest moments of human history. Thus, for the first time in the history of numismatics, on the following coins of the “The Allegories” series, Germania “will meet” with legendary national personifications in symbolic circumstances
