Coming out of nowhere, Germania Mint kicked off 2024 with a simple two-ounce cast silver bar. On the front of it was a beautiful coloured image of the goddess Freyja. So had debuted ‘Goddesses’, a new series of silver bars, and it was a huge hit, with prices on the secondary market rising dramatically. They followed that up with Sigyn a short while ago, and that sold out as quickly.

We’re not surprised to see the range expand, and the obvious route to that was to feature the gods, an even larger pantheon of potential subjects, and in many cases, household names. However, the series will be capped at six releases, with one launching every two months, just like Goddesses.

These bars are popular because of the artwork – no question. The first god, Baldur, is outstanding, and the equal of either of the Goddesses released to date. We really have to give credit to Germania Mint for the designs, and it’s easy to see why collectors have taken them to heart. We were fortunate to get a sample of Sigyn, and it lives up to expectations. Each bar is packaged in a card box with a COA, and the serial number is engraved on the bar. Only 999 pieces again, so expect these to go quickly. Available to order now.
