This left-profile image was designed by Jody Clark, known for his work on British coinage. **Reverse** On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Czech Lion Silver Coin, the design showcases a detailed Czech lion with a forked tail, wearing the Crown of St. Wenceslas. This crown dates back to 1346 when it was created for Charles IV and dedicated to the countrys patron saint. It has since played a role in the coronation of Bohemian rulers. **History** The Czech lion has roots in medieval Europe, dating back to when Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa granted heraldic arms to King Vladislaus II. The design showed a silver lion on a red field, symbolizing strength, and originally featured one tail. Tradition says a second tail was later added in recognition of King Pemysl Otakar Is assistance in regional conflicts. By 1253, the two-tailed lion had become the official coat of arms of Bohemia and continues to represent Czech identity. **Ordering** If you have any questions about silver coins for sale, please feel free to ask.
