Una and the Lion was first designed to commemorate the start of Queen Victoria’s reign. The design casts Queen Victoria in Una’s role, while the lion is a representation of the British people. This bar shows Una holding the monarch’s sceptre and orb, she and the Lion are standing courageously, facing towards the future. Inspired by the poem The Faerie Queene, Una who is imprisoned by a dragon begins a journey to save her parents and the lion becomes her champion after learning of her innocence and beauty. The bar ranges between polished and frosted finishes. The bars are sealed in official Royal Mint, secure blister packaging along with a unique serial number. These bars have a limited mintage of 4000.
