The “Jason and Medea” 2-ounce coin encapsulates themes of love, betrayal, and revenge woven into the ancient tale of tragic lovers. As a trophy on the shoulder, the gilded Golden Fleece stands out as a symbol of ultimate achievement and the central object of Jason’s quest. Medea, a powerful sorceress, initially aids Jason out of love, using her magic to help him secure the Fleece and escape. Their story evolves darkly following Jason’s betrayal.
The coin’s high-relief imagery evokes a moment of promise and partnership, before the later turmoil that would unravel their fates.
