This is the second issue in the Camelot Series from Niue and it is dedicated to King Arthur’s close companion and greatest Knight of the Round Table, Sir Lancelot.
A hero of many battles, quests and tournaments and a nearly unrivalled swordsman, he becomes the lord of the castle Joyous Gard and personal champion of Arthur’s wife, but when his adulterous affair with Guinevere is discovered, it causes a civil war that is exploited by Mordred to end Arthur’s kingdom. The reverse shows the moment when Lancelot meets Guinevere in distress and saves her with his 24k gold-plated sword from the attack and attempted abduction of a few enemy knights of Camelot.
Lancelot du Lac is portrayed in stunning detail with a rimless, antique-finished and high relief .999 silver coin. The design is further complemented with select gold gilding on both faces and a 3D insert on the reverse.
