Morgan Le Fay is a central character within Arthurian legend with a backstory that varies with each re-telling, ranging from a benevolent healer to an antagonistic enchantress.
In certain retellings of the legend, she helps bear the wounded Arthur to the mystical isle of Avalon, where she treats his injuries. From the Victorian era through to American literature of the 19th and 20th centuries, she is commonly cast as a villainous character who often seeks to harm Arthur and anyone associated with the legendary king.
Morgan Le Fay's character has inspired numerous adaptations in literature, art, and popular culture. She has appeared in various Arthurian novels, films, and television series. This is the third and final coin inspired by Arthurian legend in The Royal Mint’s Myths and Legends Collection.
This £5 Brilliant Uncirculated Coin depicts Morgan Le Fay in stunning detail as a dark and powerful enchantress, wearing a winged headpiece and poised to use magic against her enemies.
