UNA & LÕVI, ilu, tugevus ja au
Legend Unast ja lõvist pärineb 16. sajandist ja Edmund Spenceri eepilisest keskaegsest poeemist Haldjakuninganna. Una on kaunis printsess, kes püüab päästa oma vanemad draakoni käest, kes on nad torni vangistanud. Ta kohtab ägedat lõvi, kelle raev on Una ilust ja süütusest lummatud. Temast saab tema ustav kaaslane, igavesti tema kõrval, kaitstes teda kahju eest.
Suhe Una ja Lõvi ja suurte mündidisainerite vahel sai alguse 1839. aasta viienaelisest mündist, mis vermiti kuninganna Victoria kroonimise esimese aastapäeva tähistamiseks. Sellel oli William Wyoni julge neoklassitsistlik kujundus, mille Una & Lôvi sümboliseeris noort kuningannat Victoriat, kes kasutas võimsa Briti rahva jõudu, keda esindas Lõvi.

Nüüd peetakse seda üheks ajaloo kaunimaks mündikujunduseks, mis jätkub Ida-India ettevõtte iga-aastase Una & the Lôvi kollektsiooniga.

The silver coin of the Czech Mint from the gift series with motifs of 12 signs of the zodiac will become not only a beautiful, but also a valuable talisman for everyone who was born in the sign of Pisces.

Do you know why there are two fishes in the celestial constellation? This can be answered by ancient Greek myths about the monster Tyfon, from whom even the ancient gods themselves had to hide. Everyone turned into an animal out of fear, and the goddess of love Aphrodite and her son Eros chose a fish appearance. In order not to lose each other in a sharp stream of water, they tied their tails with a gibbon… The lives of Pisces in human form are ruled by emotions. They absorb the moods of their surroundings - positive and negative - and then behave according to them. Sensitivity and extraordinary sense of empathy make them great helpers who are always willing to lend a helping hand. However, their lack of self-confidence often leads to situations where they allow themselves to be abused. In addition to the constellation, the Pisces is also ruled by the planet Neptune. In astrology, it often points to individuals who love impersonally - such as humanity as a whole - which can sometimes lead to self-sacrifice, which the Pisces often commits.

The non-traditional oval-shaped coin bears a colored image of the Fish on the reverse side. Photographs or computer graphics were not used as a template for coloring - the author of the coin, Asamat Baltaev, DiS., created an original watercolor painting. The relief in the background of Pisces presents a disk with a dozen zodiac signs. The composition of the reverse side is then supplemented with the Latin inscription PISCES and the corresponding astrological symbol. Since the coins of the Czech Mint are licensed by a foreign issuer, the island of Niue, the obverse side bears its national emblem, the nominal value of ONE DOLLAR (NZD) and the year of issue 2021. All this is surrounded by twelve astrological signs.

The coin is stored in an elegant box.
