The 2023 $5 Siren 2oz Silver Proof Coin, our latest nautical masterpiece, celebrates the mythical sea siren - a creature of deadly beauty. The Siren originates in ancient Greek mythology - a wicked temptress who takes the form of a half-woman, half-bird. The Roman poet Ovid wrote that the Sirens were once the human companions of Persephone, the daughter of the goddess Demeter. When Persephone was stolen by Hades, the God of the underworld, Demeter turned the Sirens into birds as punishment. The legend of the Siren, as the creatures who lured sailors to their deaths with the irresistible sweetness of their song, was further disseminated through the works of Homer, when the hero Odysseus faced them in his long journey back to Ithaca. In modern times, the Siren is often portrayed as a stunning, but lethal, mermaid – the quintessential temptress capable of luring hardened sailors to their death with her hypnotic song. It is this desirable denizen of the deep that has been brilliantly depicted on the reverse of this spectacularly struck Niue legal tender coin.

This could probably be the way to describe this nanny. She is attentive, charming, creative, but most importantly, she manages to do everything in time and is able to change the world for the better. This nanny symbolizes strong women who, like a real Jill of all trades, keeps up with everything and knows how to take care of everyone, so that no one is left unhappy. After all, there are so many different needs and so many different expectations in a house with children. The greatest challenge in the family is to understand and support each other. It seems that this is what the Magical Nanny is teaching us.
