Horseshoes have long been viewed as symbols of good fortune, with their roots tracing back to the Middle Ages. People believed that iron could drive away evil, and the curved shape resembled protective lunar symbols found in ancient traditions. Blacksmiths, who worked with fire and iron, were sometimes thought to possess special powers, further reinforcing the idea that horseshoes brought protection and luck. Now, you can add this meaningful symbol to your collection with the 1/4 Gram Gold Horseshoe Round, available at Provident Metals.

Each 1/4 Gram Gold Horseshoe Round is securely housed in a plastic capsule. Monarch Precious Metals crafts these rounds using hand-rolled gold sheets. The blanks are cut by hand, and the design is carefully stamped on both sides, giving each piece a unique, handcrafted touch.

Obverse

The obverse of the Gold Horseshoe Round showcases the Monarch Precious Metals logo and identifying hallmarks. The design prominently features a crown created from the MPM initials, with the mints name encircling the outer edge. The inscriptions include MONARCH PRECIOUS METALS.

Reverse

On the reverse of the 1/4 Gram Gold Horseshoe Round, a lucky horseshoe is engraved.

This side also includes inscriptions denoting the rounds weight, metal content, and purity. The inscriptions read 1/4 GRAM, 9999, and FINE GOLD.

History

Different beliefs exist about the best way to display a horseshoe for good luck.
