History

The Neo-Gothic movement that inspired this legendary coin took place during the 18^th and 19^th centuries. In part, this development occurred as a response to the Industrial Revolution. Many during this time felt a longing for the simpler time of the Middle Ages. Artists listened to this sentiment and began designing their work in the Gothic style of the Medieval era. Thus, the Gothic Revival was born. Artist William Dyce, who created the Gothic Crown, drew upon this shift in designing the coin.
