Daily, the dragon has demanded a sacrifice of virgin ladies from the hamlet. In exchange, he will refrain from destroying the town.

Eventually, the hamlet is reduced to the king and Queen's daughter. St. George appears at this point of stress. He offers to ride out and confront the dragon in order to avert the princess's death. He is reported to have slain the dragon with his sword.

The Valiant offers 1oz silver with an additional 10 oz version of silver after the first weight.
