Excalibur 2026 $5 Shaped 3oz Silver Antique Coin

Representing the cutting edge of modern numismatics, this genuine legal tender coin is struck in the shape of Excalibur – the iconic sword of King Arthur! The legend of King Arthur is undoubtedly one of the world’s most well-known folktales. Developing from Welsh mythology, King Arthur began his journey to international fame through Historia Regum Britanniae (History of the Kings of Britain). Penned in the 12th century by Geoffrey of Monmouth, this highly imaginative pseudo-history encompasses many of the key elements of the Arthurian Legend. Deeply interwoven in our cultural fabric, that legend could scarcely be more famous. King Arthur, Queen Guinivere, Merlin the Wizard, Camelot, the Knights of the Round Table…are all household names today – as is King Arthur’s sword, Excalibur. While it is broadly acknowledged that Excalibur symbolises nobility, justice, courage, heroism and destiny, the actual story of Arthur’s iconic sword has varied over the centuries. Perhaps the most famous is Excalibur as the Sword in the Stone – effortlessly removed by a teenage Arthur, thereby unwittingly proving his Royal ancestry. Equally, the story of the Lady of the Lake – emerging from the waters to hand Excalibur to Arthur– is known worldwide. There may be debate about the myth of Excalibur, but there’s no doubting the fame of Arthur’s iconic sword – or the quality of the Excalibur 2026 $5 Shaped 3oz Silver Antique Coin!
