Brave, Powerful Feminine Touch

The obverse portrays a wonderfully stunning representation of two powerful guardians. Polonia and Germania meet together in the friendship between cultures. Germania confidently and proudly holds her shield, while the brave and confident Polonia carries her sword, both standing together in friendship. The background is filled with a distinctive guilloche pattern that really makes Polonia and Germania prominently stand out.

Interpretive Germania Coat of Arms

The reverse of this 2022 Germania Allegories Polonia 25 Mark 5 oz Silver BU offering displays Germania Mint's interpretation of what would best represent the moral principles and noble values of the historical land of Germania. Germania, as such, never became a country with its own coat of arms. The design is both highly representative of these values, and absolutely gorgeous!

Quoting from the Mint's own descriptive text,

"The crowned shield has been divided into four parts, from which each has a traditional meaning, precisely defined by heraldry. In the top left corner of the crest, there is the Germania Mint's Bicephalous eagle, a Roman mythology symbol associated with Janus, the god of all origins, guardian of doors, gates, passages, and bridges, the patron of contracts and alliances. Heads facing the opposite symbolize the past and the future.

The right upper corner is decorated with a check pattern that refers to wisdom and prudence every good sovereign should be distinguished by these character traits. On the left bottom corner of the shield, there are three flowers on a gold ribbon. They hide three values determining a strong and independent unity, integrity, and freedom. On the right bottom corner of the crest, a wild boar appears, a very popular and respectful animal in the Roman Empire, which is a symbol of mightiness and power."

A fine beaded border tightly encircles the rim, and the background has a very nicely-textured pattern. Inscriptions include "GERMANIA . 2022 . 25 MARKS."

This highly anticipated and beautifully stunning fifth release of the new Germania Allegories series has a very limited mintage of only 500 for worldwide distribution. This is not an offering you want to miss. Please be quick to reserve your desired quantity!

Allegories Series Introduction

Allegories raise the question as to why many ancient lands and nations, (particularly in the West), have both feminine names and female personifications as their legendary guardians. Perhaps, this could be explained in the allegorical sense of identifying the "homeland" with the actual home and family in which they were raised under maternal care and protection.

As the mint states, "Treating the country as a metaphor of home and family, nations have always identified their countries with maternal protection, which provided them with a sense of security and community. Wishing to pay a tribute to them, we created a series of coins called 'The Allegories', with which we want to celebrate the extraordinary figures of 'mothers of nations', that for centuries have encouraged people in the hardest moments of human history."

It is out of this sense that the Allegories of Germania Mint were born. This series promises to be quite fascinating and this fifth release 2020 Germania Allegories Polonia 25 Mark 5 oz Silver BU is a remarkably fine addition! Depicting the feminine guardian of Germania and her counterpart of another powerful nation meeting together, there is the expectation that the two could walk together towards a brighter future for both.
