History
The original Una and the Lion coin design was created in 1839 by William Wyon. With production starting that year, it came two years after the start of Queen Victorias reign in 1837. The design was meant to honor the start of her reign and was the first British coin design to capture the image of a British monarch as a mythical figure.
