MORGAN LE FAY
Made for a Powerful Enchantress
First appearing in Geoffrey of Monmouth’s Vita Merlini, which followed his seminal Historia Regum Britanniae (or The History of the Kings of Britain), Morgan le Fay is a central character within Arthurian legend. We are proud to honour the enchantress on the third commemorative coin in our Myths and Legends Collection.
Morgan le Fay follows King Arthur and Merlin to feature on the third and final coin inspired by Arthurian legend in our Myths and Legend Collection.
David Lawrence’s skilled design portrays Morgan le Fay, a dark and powerful enchantress, wearing a winged headpiece and poised to use magic against her enemies.
The coin’s reverse is embellished with a frosted finish, alongside a hexurity feature in the background of the design that allows the light to reflect in different angles.
