Niue - Kitsune
Description
Kitsune
She lets you see her face. For a moment, she seems familiar – until a white fox mask and flowing silk reveal secrets of their own…
Kitsune is the second silver collector's coin in the Soul of Japan series, following Geisha. In Japanese folklore, a kitsune is a fox with the ability to take human form. Sometimes it appears as a beautiful woman. Some stories speak of loyalty and protection. Others tell of deception, wisdom and immense supernatural power. Her appearance reveals little of her true intentions.
This coin reveals another side of her story. Stone steps lead up towards torii gates, recalling Fushimi Inari Taisha in Kyoto. There, foxes are revered as messengers of Inari, the deity associated with rice, prosperity and worldly success. Each gate marks the boundary between everyday life and the sacred. People cross that threshold to express gratitude or to pray for a flourishing business, good fortune and the well-being of their families.
The fox carries the promise of blessings. Yet the mask draws another boundary – between the face we see and the identity we can never know. The gates mark an entrance. The mask leaves a question.
Rich colours, selective gilding and an antique finish bring the design to life, while the reverse bears the seal of Niue surrounded by an ornamental shield motif.
She keeps her secrets. Would you trust her with your hopes?
