Early civilizations believed that celestial bodies exerted an influence on earthly affairs. When observing the night sky over the course of a year, the Babylonians identified 12 different patterns of stars through which the sun appeared to pass. The roots of astrology lay in the idea that a person's character and destiny were linked to the arrangement of these celestial bodies at the time of their birth and that the corresponding constellation of stars could to some extent determine certain influences in life. The twelve patterns that we know today as our zodiac signs include Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Leo natives are born between July 23 and August 23 and are considered self-confident, creative, proud and warm-hearted. They like to be the center of attention, but can also be dominant and stubborn. The rectangular **2 oz zodiac sign - Leo silver coin in color** is delivered in the original box including a certificate of authenticity from the New Zealand Mint.
