Little John Coin Background
This is the third coin in the Myths and Legends Robin Hood series. Firstly celebrating the story of the legend himself, The Royal Mint have now moved onto Little John, one of his loyal companions.
Little John is one of Robin Hood’s ‘Merry Men’ and, along with Will Scarlett, Friar Tuck, Much and Maid Marian, they were said to have lived together in Sherwood Forest, near Nottingham. Little John was considered to be Robin Hood’s second in command. Contrary to his name, Little John is thought to have been a giant man, with a warrior like build.
The Royal Mint also produce Little John coins in 1oz Silver and as part of the Silver Myths and Legends three coin set.
Little John Coin Design
This is the third coin in a new bullion collection inspired by the myth and legend of Robin Hood. Jody Clark’s depiction of the character features Little John, holding a wooden staff in Sherwood Forest.
This coin was preceded by the Robin Hood coin, who is the protagonist of the whole story, and was then followed by the Maid Marian coin, who was a valued member of their group and was rumoured to collect vital information.
