Stirling Bridge, 1297
Wallace was a knight of the lesser nobility who became one of the main leaders of Scotland’s first war of independence against England. In September 1297, with Andrew Moray, he defeated an English army at the Battle of Stirling Bridge and was named Guardian of Scotland. Defeat at Falkirk followed in 1298, and in 1305 he was captured and executed on the orders of Edward I. His name outlived him, carried by poems, novels and film.
Defiance in High Relief
The design pictures the defiance of the Scots, with Wallace in high relief and gold gilding picking out the key details against the antiqued silver. The other side carries the Public Seal of Niue ringed by historical weapons, with LEGENDARY WARRIORS, FIVE DOLLARS and 2 oz 999 in the legends.
