This beautiful 1 oz Silver Proof Round - Kindred Spirits is the second silver round in the Anne Stokes series by Anonymous Mint. Master Sculptor Luigi Badia is credited with creating sculpts that give the images a three-dimensional appearance. These exquisite, fantastical, limited edition rounds have been struck at Osborne Coinage, America’s oldest private mint.
This pure silver round with proof finish depicts a young, fair-haired royal maiden meeting with a dragon that is wrapped securely around a tree. The two gaze knowingly at each other while the maiden rests her hand on the dragon’s tail. The maiden’s spike-antlered crown matches the dragon’s spiked horns on its head.
The standard reverse of the series features an iconic dragon design by Anne Stokes. The overhead view of a dragon encircled perfectly by its wingspan and the dragon’s turned, uplifted head and curved, spiked tail. This specific design has appeared in various other artworks by Anne and has also been fashioned into a necklace pendant. Across the top rocker of the coin reads the text Anne Stokes Dragons while the bottom center text displays weight and purity.
The fantasy art of Anne Stokes features life-like portrayals of art themes ranging from the romantic and mystical to the dark underworld of gothic subjects. Originally from London, England, Anne Stokes began her career as a merchandise designer for bands including the Rolling Stones and Queen. Her early illustrations were also featured in Dungeons and Dragons. Today Anne continues to produce and expand the ranges of her highly acclaimed artwork.
