Brutus the Dragon

available in 8oz and 30oz versions!

Knuckles down and teeth bared, one might mistake Brutus for a mindless battle hungry grunt. This would be a graven error, for beneath the formidable exterior is a cool, albeit a bit prickly, calculating beast that has already anticipated his opponents next three moves. Wings built for speed and brandishing a razor sharp tail made for bashing, you'll want Brutus on you side at the office and on the battlefield.

With Coco the Dragon in the watchtower and Brutus on the front line, this collection just got EPIC. Brutus is the second dragon in the Fairies and Fantasy Collection.  

Meticulously crafted, universally revered, Silver Statues for the mindful collector.

In 2015 National Geographic stumbled across a beautiful neon and red glowing sea turtle. At the time the live video was taken, the divers had no idea what species they were looking at, except that it was the first biofluorescent turtle ever found. But this stunning creature turned out to be the Hawksbill Sea Turtle. Although the species was first documented back in 1766, this was the first time scientists had ever observed it glowing.
 
You may be familiar with the material known as ‘tortoiseshell’. Its mottled coloring was popular in combs, jewelry, handles, and guitar picks. Its popularity dates back to Ancient Egyptian times. The material came from the now critically endangered Hawksbill Turtle’s shell. These days, synthetic substitutes exist for those wanting that ‘tortoiseshell’ look.
 
This gorgeous sea turtle is also incredibly tough, and we don’t just mean the shell! Its omnivorous diet includes things like innocent sponges and algae, but also jellyfish and even the Portuguese Man O'War! Because of this poisonous diet, the turtle’s flesh can become toxic to other prey, but not to the Hawksbill itself.
 
When you observe this majestic marine creature you can see why it’s called the Hawksbill. Unlike other sea turtles, it is characterized by its elongated head and hooked jaw that looks like a beak. And now, we’ve captured this amazing creature and its story in stunning .925 silver. You’ll love its cheeky looking beak, and knowing no turtles were harmed so you could enjoy it in your home.

THE EPIC LEGEND COMES TO LIFE 

Once upon a time there was a poison spreading Dragon, who lived in Silene’s town lake. Each day, two sheep were fed to the Dragon to subdue its rage. But when they ran out of livestock, it was fed children instead! One day, the King’s daughter was chosen by chance. Dressed as a bride she was sent out to the middle of the lake, but a Crusader Knight, by the name of St George rode past and saw the young lady’s plight. St George coaxed the Dragon from the lake back to the town of Silene, and there, he slayed him with the Ascalon Sword. Upon defeating the monstrous beast, St George requested that the entire town of 17,000 inhabitants convert to Christianity. The King built a church on that very site. It is rumored that the spring flowing from it’s alter, contained water that could cure all disease.

A ROYAL DESIGN The original statue was designed by a 19th century artist to the Royals. Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm was a medalist and sculptor. He was most famously known for the Duke of Wellington sculpture on Hyde Park Corner and the Jubilee head of Queen Victoria on coinage. You’ll find this important work of St George gracing the lawns at the State Library in Victoria, Australia.

As the third statue in the Coins of the World solid silver statue collection, The Libertad commemorates Mexico's Libertad coin.

THE FIGHT FOR LIBERTAD It was September 16th, 1810 when Catholic Priest, Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla launched the Mexican War Of Independence. Known as ‘The Father Of Mexico’, Miguel successfully called upon the town of Delores to rise up against the tyranny of Spanish-Euro occupiers. Sadly, he was to lose his life before victory was realized. But a century later, Monumento a la Indepencia was built to commemorate the start of his war.

INTRODUCING THE GREEK GODDESS OF VICTORY: In a magnificent merging of culture, Mexico crowned Monumento a la Indepencia (The Monument to Independence) with a stunning 22 foot statue named El Angel, inspired by The Greek Goddess Nike Of Samothrace - well known in Greek mythology as the Goddess Of Victory.
