This bullion struck by Germania Mint is dedicated to the linden strong numismatic symbol and which irrigate the traditions of the German peoples also.
Here is the third piece of the Mystical Forest series tribute to the power and mysticism of trees. Linden is a symbol of femininity of life and vitality. In Germanic mythology he was associated with Freyja the goddess of love and fertility. The linden is also the tree of the lovers under which they danced and celebrated that is why it was planted in the central part of the villages.
Planting a lime tree commemorated important events such as weddings or births. Coffins were also made from his wood to ensure a peaceful sleep after death. As linden was associated with peace it was also a good material for cradles. People hid under the tree during thunderstorms believing it protected them from lightning. Touching the bark of the lime tree was supposed to keep diseases away from the population and its sanitary properties are widely known and appreciated even today.
On the obverse of the room we find a linden leaf and its flower inflorescence of this tree that was used in herbalism and natural medicine. The reverse represents a two-headed eagle already familiar to collectors symbolizing the past and the future. Lightning in his talons is a divine attribute meaning the power to create and destroy.
