First issued in 1847, the original Gothic Crown design was engraved by master craftsman William Wyon at the very peak of his career. Influenced by a renewed interest in the art of the Middle Ages that became known as the Gothic Revival, Wyon’s design immediately drew praise for its astonishing beauty.
Inspired by Wyon’s original work, this new limited-edition gold and silver minted bullion bar range incorporates design elements from both sides of the Gothic Crown, including the coinage portrait of Queen Victoria, the Royal Arms and the coin’s medieval-style calligraphy. Queen Victoria’s braided hair, floral dress and crown hark back to a bygone age, whilst the quartered Royal Arms has a long tradition in numismatics. However, no other design comes close to replicating the skill and ambition of Wyon’s shield.
