The Dragonfly and the Bloom Fine Silver Proof Coin: A Touch of Magic
Imagine capturing the beauty of a dragonfly hovering over a bloom on a sunny day. The Dragonfly and the Bloom Fine Silver Proof Coin brings this enchanting scene to life with an interactive design that lets you experience nature’s elegance every time you hold it.
A Coin That Moves With You
This 2024 movement coin features a gyroscopic design—tilt the coin, and the dragonfly circles around the golden bloom! Crafted from sterling silver and plated in yellow gold, the dragonfly and bloom are meticulously detailed to evoke sunlit warmth. The bloom’s center sparkles with a clear crystal, mimicking a dew drop glistening in sunlight.
Exceptional Realism and Golden Details
The coin’s intricate engraving draws viewers into a serene moment: ripples spread across the mirror-like “water” surface, with delicate water droplets adding depth. Both the dragonfly and bloom are cast in 3D and plated in yellow gold, but subtle variations in the finish enhance the realism. The inward curves of the flower petals soften the light, while the dragonfly’s wings and body shine brightly, catching the light in a way that beautifully contrasts with the bloom.
With 5 oz. of 99.99% pure silver and a generous 65.25mm diameter, the coin provides an expansive canvas. The backdrop depicts lily pads floating on rippling water, all polished to a beautiful proof finish. Each coin is truly a miniature work of art.

The Six Wives of Henry VIII: The Women Behind the Throne
As the story of Henry VIII unfolded, six women shaped the Tudor court and influenced Henry’s decisions, each leaving her mark on history.
Katherine of Aragon (1485–1536)
Henry’s first queen and a Spanish princess, Katherine was determined to remain married despite her inability to produce a male heir. Her resistance led Henry to break from the Catholic Church, forever changing England’s religious landscape.
Anne Boleyn (1501–1536)
Henry’s fascination with Anne led to a legendary romance, the birth of Elizabeth I, and a dramatic fall from grace. When Anne couldn’t provide a son, Henry’s affection turned to fury, leading to her tragic execution.
Jane Seymour (1508–1537)
The gentle Jane Seymour, Henry’s third wife, was the only queen to give him a surviving male heir, Edward VI. Tragically, she died shortly after childbirth, leaving Henry grieving.
Anne of Cleves (1515–1557)
Henry’s fourth marriage, arranged for political alliance, ended swiftly due to Henry’s dissatisfaction. Nonetheless, Anne was treated well post-annulment, living the rest of her life as the “King’s Beloved Sister.”
Catherine Howard (1523–1542)
Young and lively, Catherine Howard quickly captured Henry’s heart, but accusations of infidelity led to her swift execution—another victim of Henry’s ruthless resolve.
Katherine Parr (1512–1548)
Henry’s final queen, Katherine Parr, was a wise and compassionate woman who helped reconcile Henry with his children. Outliving him, she later remarried, marking her as a survivor of one of history’s most dangerous courts.
