An allegory is a personification of abstract ideas. Or it may be picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one. Or a symbol, a sign, a representation.
In this case it is the personification of countries. A series of coins called “The Allegories” celebrates the extraordinary figures of “mothers of nations”. The coins in the “The Allegories” series, Germania meets with legendary national personifications in symbolic circumstances. Source
