About the coin: the popular collection of Queen's Beasts continues. It was complemented by a new silver coin depicting Hanover's white horse. This is the second horse in the collection. The image of upright standing, neighing horse signifies vigor and perseverance. These are qualities that have always been important to monarchs. The coins in this collection are special because they are tinted with ruthenium and gilded with 24K gold.
