Everybody knows the story of the Golden Fleece. An Ancient Greek tale, it tells of Jason and his crew of Argonauts (aboard the Argo!) as they voyage to retrieve the Golden Fleece, thus placing Jason on the throne as King of Iolcus.
After Jason returned with the Golden Fleece, he and Medea celebrated their love for each other and were wed. And this coin, from the Lithuanian Mint series "Medea’s and Jason’s Love", celebrates those climactic nuptials from the famous tale of antiquity.
Measuring a large 50mm in diameter, struck from two ounces of 99.9% pure silver, and featuring gold-plating and delicate colourful touches, only 500 of this Jason & Medea's Love coin will ever be minted.
