Stories

Pegasus

A mythological creature of great beauty, Pegasus is typically represented as a pure white stallion with wings.

With an origin many believe from ancient Greek mythology, Pegasus is considered by some to have been foaled from the blood of Medusa, the Gorgon whose gaze could turn men to stone, when she was killed by Perseus.

Famous for helping heroes achieve great victories, today Pegasus is symbolic to many as a depiction of freedom, power and creativity.
This immortal flying horse represents human ability to encourage limitless imagination and creativity, bringing magical elements to everyday life.

Appearing on coins dating as far back as 500-450BC Pegasus remains today one of numismatics most popular themes.

This 2022 Pegasus 1oz Silver BU coin by acclaimed artist Jennie Norris captures the freedom, power and beauty of Pegasus, creating a must have coin for investors and collectors.

Featuring a powerful interpretation of Pegasus by Jennie Norris, the winged horse is set in left profile with its long wings extended. A Greek inspired pattern surrounds the design set on a texture background.

This 1oz Silver bullion coin is minted to investment grade standard in unlimited quantity. It will be shipped in a small plastic coin sleeve for safe keeping while in transit.

  • FAQ

    What's the difference between a BU coin and a Proof coin?
    A coin struck to a BU (Brilliant Uncirculated) quality is typically machine produced in mass and purchased mainly for investment purposes. It is the lowest grade of minting above circulating coin standard and as such may carry imperfections typical of a mass produced product. Proof quality coins are the pinnacle of minting artistry. Generally issued in precious metals as strictly limited editions, proof coins are struck one coin at a time in a high pressure press which strikes the design into the blank a number of times to ensure every detail is transferred. Every Proof coin finish should be as close to perfection as possible.
