Merlin Myths & Legends 1oz Silver Coin 2023
Product Description
Brought to you by The Royal Mint. As part of the esteemed Myths and Legends series, this coin is a celebration of the influential figures that shaped the British mythical landscape, and no character is more significant than Merlin, the legendary sorcerer and confidante to King Arthur. Born from the union of a mortal woman and a demon father, Merlin’s extraordinary magical abilities have captured imaginations for centuries. This 1oz gold coin immortalizes Merlin in exquisite detail, capturing the mystical aura that surrounds him.
In the coin’s striking design, Merlin is shown holding a magic stave, a symbol of his potent magical powers, and a golden sickle, traditionally used for the sacred act of cutting mistletoe. Perched on Merlin’s shoulder is a wise owl, a token of the wisdom that guided King Arthur and his knights. Looming in the background is the iconic Glastonbury Tor, said to be the inspiration for the mythical island of Avalon, further enhancing the coin’s connection to the enchanting tales of Arthurian lore.
Crafted from one troy ounce of 999.9 fine gold, the 2023 Merlin Myths & Legends Gold Coin is a masterpiece of minting. Struck to The Royal Mint’s stringent bullion standard, each coin exhibits a fine blend of precision and craftsmanship, ensuring a product of the highest quality.
Why buy silver bullion coins?
Investors will enjoy buying silver coins instead of bars for the sake of collecting. In fact, some silver coins like the Chinese Panda, or the Australian Kangaroo series have a design that changes every year. You can then start collecting each minting year in a bullion series. In summary, buying 1oz silver coins add enjoyment and collectability to silver bullion investment.
In most cases, choosing between silver coins or bars will be a matter of preference. It will depend on your investment goals and motives. In general, silver coins carry a higher premium as opposed to bars. However, most silver bullion coins are more affordable. Such coins like the silver britania are produced in large quantities every year. As a result, these coins are very popular in the market, have high market liquidity and are easy to trade. This makes silver bullion coins appealing as an investment choice.
Finally, some silver coins have additional tax added benefits. Silver Britannia for instance is ideal for British investors because they are exempt from Capital Gain Tax (CGT). This is due to the legal tender status of the coin in the UK. Similarly, Silver Eagle can be used in IRA plans for US citizens.
