Detailed description
The Moon Landing - First Step
The uniquely shaped spherical gold-plated silver coin is issued by the State of Barbados for 2024 and minted from the purest 99.9% silver weighing 1 Oz in Antique Standard precision and high relief. The coin is dedicated to one of the most significant events in human history - the 55th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission with the landing of the first man on the moon.
The reverse side of the spherical coin is dominated by a sculptural imprint of the astronaut's footprint, gilded in 24 kt gold, which is embedded in the lunar surface covering most of the coin's surface, creating a 3D effect.
Apollo 11 was a historic space mission that became the first successful human landing on the Moon. On July 16, 1969, a Saturn V rocket launched with a crew consisting of astronauts Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, and Michael Collins. Armstrong and Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the surface of the Moon on July 21, 1969. They spent 2.5 hours outside the lunar module and collected nearly 22 kg of rocks. Neil Armstrong's legendary words "This is a small step for man, but a great leap for mankind" have become a symbol of human achievement in space. The whole world watched this historic event, which strengthened human space exploration and symbolised determination and technological progress.
The obverse bears the national emblem of Barbados surrounded by the inscription ''BARBADOS'', the denomination ''5 DOLLARS'', the weight and purity of the metal and the year of issue ''2024'' divided into tenths on the sides.
The coin is supplied in a presentation frame, which is inserted in the original paper wrapper, which also serves as a certificate. The mintage of the coin is limited to only 1,969 pieces for the whole world!
