GARGOYLES OF THE WORLD – NOTRE DAME II

Notre-Dame II – 1 AVDP Oz .999 Fine Copper Round | Gargoyles of the World Series

Description:

Celebrate the macabre artistry of Gothic architecture with the Notre-Dame Goat Gargoyle copper round, the second release in our Gargoyles of the World Series. Perched atop the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, this enigmatic creature embodies the eerie charm and vigilant spirit of medieval stonework.

Struck in .999 fine copper, this 1 oz AVDP round measures 39mm and features a detailed depiction of the goat-headed gargoyle gazing pensively over the rooftops of Paris, with the unmistakable silhouette of the Eiffel Tower in the distance. The reverse displays the series’ signature design — an elaborate gothic window motif framing the title Gargoyles of the World, topped with a winged gargoyle emblem.

The Legend:
Gargoyles served a dual purpose in medieval architecture: functional water spouts to divert rain and symbolic guardians warding off malevolent spirits. The goat gargoyle, with its horns and sharp features, evokes ancient associations with wilderness and the supernatural. Nestled high on the façade of Notre-Dame, this figure has watched over Paris for centuries, a stony sentinel of the city’s rich history and folklore.

A captivating addition for collectors who admire the intersection of myth, architecture, and artistry.
