A Golden Dragon minted after Aegon II Targaryen’s secret coronation. Aegon II, at first, refused to be a part of his mother’s plans to crown him, insisting Rhaenyra was heir. He was eventually convinced by Ser Criston Cole, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard. The obverse depicts the portrait of young King Aegon II who strongly resembled his father, Viserys I Targaryen, in appearance. He had a sullen look to his eyes and a pouty mouth with a wispy mustache instead of a beard. He wore the iron-and-ruby crown of Aegon I Targaryen.
The reverse depicts the sigils of Aegon II’s mother and sire with House Targaryen and Hightower; a dragon perching on a tower. Like many Targaryens before him, Aegon II was a dragonrider. His mount was Sunfyre, a dragon with brilliant golden scales. The three-headed Targaryen dragon in the arms of Aegon was made golden to honor Sunfyre.

Our Process
Shire Post Mint coins are struck one at a time in West Fork, Arkansas, USA using solid metals, hand-engraved designs, antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. For antiqued coins, the coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Our unique packaging includes a description of each coin and translations if applicable.
We collaborate with many artists to create our coins. Learn more about our artists.
