Description
The gold coin features the motif “Lady with an Ermine,” inspired by one of the most celebrated portraits by Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci. Elegantly presented in a decorative coin card with a compact credit card format, this piece is a sophisticated collector’s item or an exquisite gift.
The obverse of the coin card showcases the poised figure of Cecilia Gallerani holding a white ermine—an image renowned for its lifelike realism, subtle expression, and symbolic elegance. At the center, the 1/1000 oz fine gold coin is embedded and finely embossed with a detail from the painting, complemented by a graceful inscription.
On the reverse of the coin card, all essential numismatic details—such as weight, purity, and composition—are clearly presented. The blend of masterful portraiture and fine gold craftsmanship makes this coin card a timeless addition to any art or precious metal collection.
Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519), one of history’s greatest artists and thinkers, painted Lady with an Ermine around 1489–1490. This remarkable portrait exemplifies his pioneering approach to anatomy, light, and psychological depth, portraying not only a likeness but the inner life of his subject. Today, it stands as one of the finest examples of High Renaissance portraiture.
