2021 Germania 5 Mark GERMANIA 1 Oz Silver Proof Coin.DESCRIPTION
GERMANIA is the Latin term for Germany, from which the name "GERMANY" is used in English language today. Due to the connection with patriotic feelings, this word was present mainly in German literature and poetry.
In ancient times the area inhabited by Germans east of the Rhine and north of the Danube rivers was called Germania.
At that time its first personifications on coins and reliefs appeared, depicting a brave woman - the guardian of the nation.
GERMANIA as a personification presents a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair, dressed in a wind-blown dress, with a victory symbolizing laurel wreath on her head.
The Amazon wields an imperial sword (Reichsschwert) and a medieval shield with the image of a two-headed eagle, which is also the main motif of the coin's reverse.
