Detailed description
Lincoln Memorial - 1 kg
This unique silver coin issued by the State of Samoa for 2022 weighing one kilogram using the Antique Standard multi-layer high relief technique and purity of 99.9% pure silver commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln Memorial.
The design on the reverse side is created at several different minting depths, creating a perfect three-dimensional effect. The plasticity of the coin stands out on the statue of President Abraham Lincoln sitting on a chair in the foreground of the coin. The name of the coin "LINCOLN MEMORIAL" is at the top, with the years "1922 - 2022" on the sides. In the centre of the coin is an inscription depicting the anniversary '100 YEARS' and an epitaph which is also carved above the actual statue: 'IN THIS TEMPLE AS IN THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE FOR WHOM HE SAVED THE UNION THE MEMORY OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN IS ENSHRINED FOREVER'. The President is surrounded by marble columns based on the real monument in the style of an ancient temple, which are interconnected by garlands of eagles. The rim of the coin contains the names of all 50 states in the USA.
The Lincoln Memorial is located on the National Mall in Washington, DC. The cornerstone was laid in 1915 and designed by architect Henry Bacon. The monument is reminiscent of the famous Parthenon in Athens. It is made up of 36 ancient columns, the number of which refers to the number of states at the time of Lincoln's death. A statue of the president by sculptor Daniel French is located in the inner hall. The statue is made of 28 marble blocks and is 5.8 m high.
The obverse depicts a coin portrait of Elizabeth II by Ian-Rank Broadley with the initials "IRB". The rim of the coin bears the inscription "SAMOA", while the lower part of the coin shows the national emblem, weight, metal purity and face value.
The coin comes in its original collector's box with a certificate of authenticity in a limited mintage of only 199 pieces for the entire world!
