Description
First issue in Fables series. Who doesn’t know the story of the farmer and the goose that laid golden eggs. Be greedy and have nothing! One of the famous Aesop’s Fables now on a coin. Unique smartminting perspective, 2oz on 45mm blanks with partial gilding.
“The Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs” is one of Aesop’s Fables, numbered 87 in the Perry Index, a story that also has a number of Eastern analogues. Many other stories contain geese that lay golden eggs, though certain versions change them for hens or other birds that lay golden eggs. The tale has given rise to the idiom ‘killing the goose that lays the golden eggs’, which refers to the short-sighted destruction of a valuable resource, or to an unprofitable action motivated by greed.
