N/A | Coins with the mark "bullion coin" are made of precious metal and serve primarily as an investment and a means of preserving value. Such are the "Czech Lions" - among the investment coins from the Czech Mint, which are the first coins of its kind embossed in the Czech Republic, there is also a variant coined from one troy ounce of pure silver. |

Why is the Czech Lion coin exceptional?
Coin double-tailed story It is not easy to be sure for lack of historical sources. Vladislav II. got a first sign with a lion from Friedrich Barbarossa in 1158 together with title "king" as a reminder that Czech warriors fought for Friedrich "as lions". But this lion had just one tail. Where we got the double-tailed lion? Maybe this comes from Premysl Otakar II. He was using a double-tailed lion sign to hint that he is "a second or younger king" of Bohemia (1247). When he was crowned as the king, he kept the double-tailed lion as the Czech coat. And so it remains until today... | |
