The Sleipnir Geminus set takes the standard Beasts release a significant step further by pairing two distinctly finished versions of the same coin in a single collector’s package. Where the standard release presents the design in raw silver, the Geminus edition offers one coin finished in black ruthenium with gold-gilded accents and a second finished in gold gilding with black ruthenium accents, inverting the color treatment between the two pieces to create a matched but visually contrasting pair. Strictly limited to 500 numbered sets, each set designates its coins with individual A and B markings, and the complete package includes a Certificate of Authenticity confirming craftsmanship quality.

The first coin presents Sleipnir in deep black ruthenium, his muscular body and powerful stride cast in dark tones against a warm gold-toned field background. The Celtic knotwork collar at his neck, the matching leg bands, and the long feathering at each hoof are all gilded in gold, creating vivid contrast between the darkened horse and its ornamental detailing. The mane on the obverse and the streaming tail on the reverse both carry the same black ruthenium treatment, while the Germania double-headed eagle on the reverse retains a polished silver finish, distinguishing it from the gold field surrounding it.
The second coin inverts this treatment entirely. Sleipnir’s body is fully gold-gilded, his musculature catching warm tones across every contour of the high-relief sculpting. The feathering and collar detail shift to black ruthenium, as does the overall field background, rendered in deep dark tones rather than gold. The tail streams in gold against the dark field on the reverse, and the Germania eagle again appears in polished silver, its contrast now set against a darker surround.
The composition across both coins remains the same split design: Sleipnir’s front half — head alert, mane flowing, four legs mid-stride emphasizing motion, strength, and stability — on the obverse, and his rear half in full gallop — tail extended, hindquarters driving forward, all four rear legs with matching knotwork bands — on the reverse. An armored saddlebag is visible strapped to his flank, and the double-headed eagle anchors the reverse background as the series’ consistent heraldic mark.
Each set ships in a stylish Blisterpack protected by a dedicated Beautybox featuring metallic effects and unique 3D embossing. An innovative dual-coin capsule with a lens effect highlights the design’s finest relief details while keeping both coins securely housed. The set is completed by a Certificate of Authenticity.
