30th Anniversary "First Man on the Moon"
Isle of Man Space Coin Series
Anybody
fascinated by space exploration will be delighted with this extraordinary
new release from the Isle of Man. Six superb legal tender crowns -
approved by NASA - illustrate some of the great moments in the space
program and commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the First Moon Landing.
The Apollo XI Moon Landing, the Mars fly-by, the Apollo-Soyuz link-up, the
Viking Mars Lander, the Columbia Shuttle and the Mars Pathfinder are
intricately illustrated in finely sculpted relief on the reverses of these
historic coins. Two coins are part of the Millennium series of coins
and are dated for the year 2000.
These stunning coins have been carefully
detailed to capture the reality of these historical and epic events.
Available in Cupro-Nickel, Sterling Silver and Fine 999.9 Gold, the
precious metal versions have been struck four times to give the famous
Pobjoy 'proof' finish, showing a beautifully sculpted relief against a
brilliant mirror background.
