Saint Paul’s Cathedral is one of London’s most iconic landmarks and a masterpiece of English Baroque architecture. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren, its magnificent dome has defined the city’s skyline for over three centuries.

Arqline Saint Paul’s Cathedral explores this architectural icon from two perspectives. The obverse shows the impressive exterior facade, while the reverse reveals a detailed architectural cross-section, offering a fascinating insight into the construction and geometry of the renowned dome.

A distinctive design element is the interplay between the silk finish and proof, which integrates the historic architectural drawing into the coin’s design. On the reverse, the drawing appears both as a small, complete reproduction and as a greatly enlarged detail in the background. The enlarged view continues mirrored on the obverse, visually linking the two sides of the coin into a harmonious whole. The result is a fascinating dialogue between architectural vision and completed masterpiece. Carefully modelled reliefs also give the cathedral an impressive sense of depth.

Another significant detail is the phoenix with the inscription “RESURGAM”, Latin for “I shall rise again”. As a symbol of rebirth, it recalls the reconstruction of Saint Paul’s after the Great Fire of London in 1666.

Created using smartminting® technology, this edition combines architecture, engineering and modern numismatic art. The 3 oz silver coin is limited to just 500 pieces worldwide and combines innovative striking technology with exceptional depth of detail.
