The symbolism of the Lion was imparted unto the children of Jacob's youngest son, Judah, in the book of Genesis. Emblematic of all that is fierce, powerful, majestic, and influential, the Lion of Judah extends Lion's domain beyond the jungle and imparts these qualities unto all those in association. In conjunction with the Sunshine Mint, the Niue Mint has combined to rejuvenate this tale on 9999 pure silver. As the third year of release and second edition of this coin, the limited mintage cap of 150,000 coins is maintained, along with the 9999 purity!

The reverse side depicts a Lion's head; its fierce roar is made evident with the use of expert engraving as the details of his scowl are apparent for all to see. A crown adorns the Lion with the Aleph Tav, a symbol representative of both the covenant's leader and the unity of Judah's descendants. The image is enhanced as it is laid over a uniquely florally inspired coin field, which serves to enhance the beauty of the coin. A micro-engraved inscription is included on Lion's crown as an added security feature, which reads, "In your majesty ride out victoriously."

Contained on the obverse is Ian Rank-Broadley's modern effigy of her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, over a coin field of light refracting radial lines.

With such a strong connection to a timeless tale of triumph and success, a mintage cap of a mere 150,000 and reasonable premiums, these coins are an excellent introductory investment, gift, or addition to your stack. Secure yours while quantities last!
