2023 Germania Silver Rounds

2023 Germania Silver Rounds

The Germania Silver Coin series is the namesake collector series from the Germania Mint.

The Germania was a book published in 98 AD by Ancient Roman historian Publius Cornelius Tacitus. The work was originally titled On the Origin and Situation of the Germans. The book was described the German people who lived outside the Roman Empire. Tacitus never visited the regions described in his book, but the descriptions and stories are those he heard second hand.

The figure of Germania personified also first appeared in Roman times, as noted on coins discovered from that era. During the Middle Ages, she arose in homages to the Holy Roman Empire.

Germania evolved during the 17th century into a patriotic nationalistic warrior throughout literature, poetry and artwork celebrating Germanic heritage.

The artwork on obverse of these modern coins depicts Germania as a brave woman that is the guardian and protector of the nation.

For 2023, she is shown as a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair with a victory wreath of laurel on her head. Her dress is blowing in the wind. The Amazon holds in her left hand an imperial sword ( named Reichsschwert. She carries a medieval shield with the image of a two-headed eagle, which is also the featured of the reverse.

The weight, purity and year of minting are inscribed around the front.

The reverse features the Germania Mint coat of arms hallmark that features a two-headed eagle in the center.
