As the Han dynasty fell into chaos, Guan Yu became a key commander under Liu Bei, helping form the Shu Han kingdom during the Three Kingdoms era. His loyalty was legendary—even when separated from Liu Bei and serving temporarily under Cao Cao, he remained devoted to his brother, defeating enemy generals before returning to Liu Bei’s side. Captured and executed by Eastern Wu in 220 CE, Guan Yu’s story only grew after his death, elevating him to hero and icon status across China.

The 2025 Antique Samoa Silver Guan Yu’s Green Dragon Crescent Blade Coin takes inspiration from descriptions of his legendary weapon. Known in Chinese as Qinglong Yanyuedao, or Green Dragon Crescent Blade, this massive polearm was said to weigh 82 pounds according to Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Its crescent-shaped blade and dragon motif have made it one of the most recognizable weapons in Chinese folklore.
