Inspired by the traditions of storytelling and folklore, passed down through centuries and generations, the Myths and Legends Collection from The Royal Mint launched in 2021, beginning with a three-coin series celebrating the famous tales of Robin Hood. The archer himself and Maid Marian appeared on the first two coins in the collection, and now the third coin in the series completes the trio of legendary characters with Little John, the faithful sidekick who is always ready to follow Robin Hood into battle.

For this coin, the designer Jody Clark has brought legend to life, depicting Little John amongst the strong trees and branches of Sherwood Forest that echo the strength and steadfastness of the character.

Struck in 999 fine silver, each one ounce coin is finished to The Royal Mint’s bullion standard, and is also available as a one ounce gold edition.
