A Tale of Courage and Devotion
The Una and the Lion Series by the Royal Mint is more than just bullion—it’s a tribute to one of the most enchanting tales in English literature.
Inspired by Edmund Spenser’s epic poem, “The Faerie Queene,” this series brings to life the story of Una, a noble princess, and the fierce yet devoted lion who becomes her protector.
In the tale, Una embarks on a risky journey after a fearsome dragon imprisons her parents. Lost and vulnerable, she encounters a mighty lion. Instead of attacking her, the lion is captivated by Una’s grace and purity, promising to guard her from harm.
This powerful bond between courage and virtue is now beautifully immortalized in fine gold and silver bullion, exclusively available from SD Bullion.
A Masterpiece in Precious Metal
The Royal Mint has masterfully translated this legendary story into an exquisite bullion bar series, available in varied sizes and struck in both gold and silver. Each bar is individually serialized and housed in a protective blister package, ensuring authenticity and long-term preservation.
