On the obverse is the image of Fafnir the dragon as his upper body wraps around the face of the round. At the top, his body seems to stop and vanish, but the design is picked up on the reverse side. You can also see Fafnir’s tongue and claws. The inscriptions “Fafnir” and “1 oz Ag 999.9” can be found on this side of the round as well.
Fafnir’s lower body is featured on the reverse of the round where it wraps around the image of the Bicephalous Eagle. Fafnir’s body makes an infinity symbol-like shape across both sides the round, which can be seen if you put the two sides next to each other.
The Bicephalous Eagle is a two-headed eagle, which symbolizes the Roman god Janus, the god of all origins, as well as the guardian of doors, bridges, gates, and passages. The Bicephalous Eagle’s two heads each face different directions as a symbol of the past and future.
With this set, you will receive two rounds with identical designs. The only difference lies in the colorization of the rounds. One round features Fafnir in a bold red and the other a bright green. Both rounds are gilded.
The Germania Mint’s Beast Series showcases some of Ancient Germany’s eldest and most horrendous creatures. Tales of these beasts have been passed down from generation to generation for centuries.
