On the obverse of these coloured coins is Marc Chagall's fresco for the ceiling of the main auditorium of the Garnier opera house, commissioned by André Malraux and inaugurated in 1964. The central medallion on the coin is not usually visible to visitors to the Palais Garnier, as it is hidden by the great chandelier that lights up the auditorium. The reverse depicts Jules-Eugène Lenepveu's 1872 work LesMusesetlesheuresdujouretdela nuit. The face value of the coin and the name "République Française" (French Republic) appear in the centre of the composition, in the style and position of the grille that once supported the large chandelier. For each composition, the décor surrounding the work is a reproduction of the mouldings that adorn the real ceiling. The name of each artist and the year in which the work was presented are inscribed on these ornaments.

Born in Brixton, South London, in 1947, David Bowie began life as David Robert Jones. By the time he was 19 he had taken on his iconic name and was taking the first steps in one of the most innovative and influential careers in the history of sound and vision. His music electrified generations, and his perpetual state of reinvention kept music fans enthralled.
The third coin in our Music Legends collection celebrates rock’s definitive chameleon with a design inspired by an image of the singer from his time spent living and recording in Berlin. The inclusion of the lightning bolt motif from the Aladdin Sane era captures Bowie’s career journey, and the moment he finally put aside the props to emerge as an artist in his own right.
Available as limited-edition precious metal Proof editions and a standard Brilliant Uncirculated edition, the Brilliant Uncirculated edition is also available with three different slipcase covers, exclusively available from The Royal Mint and are a fitting tribute to the career of one of British music’s most enduring icons.

Hestia's main sign if Capricorn, which stresses her more subtle but relevant nature. Capricorn, like Sagittarius, also stresses order, stability and stoicness. More so, it takes theses traits further and is a sign associated with practicality, hard work, strong will and stubbornness. Hestia, as the perpetual tender of the flames, is definitely a very hard working and practical goddess, and while I by no means would refer to her as “stubborn”, she does have a strong will in what little myths she appears in. Capricorn is also relevant in it’s role in the Zodiac. It’s the sign that covers the Winter Solstice, when the Sun is at it’s lowest, being opposite to Cancer. Thus, not only does it coincide with the time of the year where Hestia’s influence is most important, as well as to her role as the center, it also coincides with a liminal time in the Zodiac, when the Sun is reborn.
