House of the Dragon silver coin note (2022 MDM Wholesale)
Those of you enjoying the new HBO Game of Thrones prequel series, ‘House of the Dragon’ will no doubt wonder where all the coins are. Well, wonder no more, because talented German producer, MDM, have issued a new three-gram silver coin note for the show. Joining a series that spans most of the big fantasy epics, namely Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Game of Thrones, this is the fourth issue to date.
Coin notes, basically a silver foil in the size and shape of a banknote (150 x 70 mm), are relatively cheap, with high mintages (20,000, in this case), so are quite easy to pick up for the casual collector, attracted by the subject. The foil follows the style of those produced for the older franchises, being replete with gilded highlights and a border, surrounding a central element, in this case, appropriately enough, the head of a dragon. The obverse side is a common one to the series, and continues the aesthetic, but with the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II in place of the theming.
The presentation is simple, but attractive, consisting of a card sleeve. The foil itself is sealed in plastic, as they all are. A neat little offering, although we hope a show as visually exquisite as House of the Dragon will inspire MDM to move in a more ambitious direction for their next release. The coin world criminally under-served Game of Thrones, and we’d not like to see its offspring suffer the same fate.
