A popular subject in European art and literature throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, the unicorn has, since the 15th century, been a fundamental element of heraldic art – especially in Scotland. Revered as an eternal symbol of power, purity, courage and fierce independence, the unicorn has been Scotland’s national animal for centuries. Since Scotland’s union with England in 1707, the Coat of Arms of the UK has featured a lion representing England and a unicorn representing Scotland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContinuing a longstanding association with gold currency – with Scottish gold coins known as Unicorns and Half Unicorns circulating in the 15th and 16th centuries – the Unicorn is the perfect addition to the Heraldic Beasts Series. Capturing the essence of this iconic creature in ‘the world’s favourite precious metal’, the broad 38.60mm flan of this 99.99% gold Proof portrays a unicorn guarding a shield emblazoned with a classic medieval unicorn motif. \u003ca name=\"_Hlk216965337\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eThe unicorn is shown collared and shackled by a chain – a traditional depiction in Royal heraldry, thought by many to symbolise that only the monarch had the power to capture and tame the untameable unicorn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSure to march down the same path to success as its predecessors – both of which have sold out – the Unicorn 2026 $100 1oz Gold Proof is to be enjoyed by the select few. The worldwide mintage is an incredibly low FIFTY coins!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not ignore this golden opportunity – click add to cart now!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Downies Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49169062068532,"sku":"41442","price":10599.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/1815\/9156\/files\/41442-1.jpg?v=1782188978","url":"https:\/\/www.downies.com\/products\/heraldic-beasts-2026-100-unicorn-1oz-gold-proof-coin","provider":"Downies Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
