Design

The same visuals can be found on both the obverse and reverse sides of these 1 Kilo Shield of Henry II Silver Stackables. The obverse is convex in shape while the reverse is concaved, allowing for multiple pieces to click into place when stacked upon one another. The design itself features a battle scene that is almost cinematic in its attention to detail. Historians suspect this image depicts a battle between Hannibal and the Romans in 216 BC. Most likely, it was meant to reflect the tensions between France and the Holy Roman Empire during Henry IIs reign.

History
