The ‘Lady of the Lake’ coin is a masterpiece inspired by the novel series “The Witcher” by Andrzej Sapkowski. Created in high relief, the coin captures every detail of the scene with great precision, giving the characters and elements of the scenery an almost three-dimensional depth. Additionally, it features an inset with distinctive green boots – a key element of the scene, highlighted by a 3D insert.
The coin depicts the titular Lady of the Lake – Nimue, standing at the top of a staircase leading to ornate doors, which reflect the magical and mysterious nature of her world. The Lady of the Lake, known for her great power and complex nature, is presented here in full glory, in a long, decorated gown that adds a majestic look to her figure.
At her feet stands a young woman – Condwiramurs Tilly, a 24-year-old sorceress from Vicovaro. She holds green boots in her hand, which she removed after jumping out of the boat. Despite the challenges she faces, her sense of excitement grows. She is on Inis Vitre Island, by the legendary Loc Blest lake – a place accessible only to a select few.
On the right, a man in a hooded cloak rows – a fisherman who helped Tilly reach Inis Vitre. A gilded fishing net, emphasized by selective gilding, enriches the entire composition.
The obverse of the coin displays the royal coat of arms of Niue, a denomination of 5 dollars, and the clearly marked .999 fine silver purity. In the background, an ornamented throne surrounded by swords recalls the constant battles and adventures experienced by Sapkowski’s characters.
