2023 Burundi $10 1/2-gm Gold Lion With Cub Proof
The Softer Side Of One Of The World’s Most Fearsome Big Cats
Anyone who has ever seen Disney’s classic 1994 animated film The Lion King knows about the unbreakable bond between father and son as represented by Mufasa and his son, Simba. Loosely based on William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, the story also has elements of truth to it for when a male lion dies, the pride is usually taken over by a new dominant male. The first thing the new “king” does is kill all of the previous pride leader’s cubs.
The Mane Member Of The Lion Family
Here you have a coin that shows a mighty male lion at ease with a young cub amid the open African savanna. Struck by Germany’s world-renowned Münzhandelsgesellschaft (MDM) coin trading company, this remarkable gold coin shows that despite the reputation of being distant fathers bent solely on protecting the whole pride against other threats, male lions do allow their cubs to frolic nearby and will even lick and nuzzle them from time to time. Released on behalf of Burundi, this beautiful $10 coin was struck in a half-gram of 99.99% pure gold and is minted with such exquisite detail that you can see every strand of hair in the lion’s shaggy mane and tawny fur! It also comes in jaw-dropping Proof condition, meaning it was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies, and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields.
The Circle Of Life In Pure Gold
A lion’s roar so loud it can reach 114 decibels and can be heard from five miles away. Lions also spend as much as 20 hours a day sleeping. These big cats have tremendous agility and brutal strength, making them incredibly efficient and deadly hunters. Mother lions keep their cubs to themselves for up to eight weeks before introducing them to the rest of the pride. When male cubs get older and start to assert their independence, the lion king usually kicks them out of the pride, forcing them to hunt on their own until they find a pride of their own. This gleaming release pays homage to that circle of life with a fabulous coin struck in pure gold!
