2018 Samoa 1 oz Silver Seahorse Reverse Proof Like Coin
Introduced in 2018, this legal tender silver coin from Samoa marks the debut of a two-coin annual series celebrating the ocean. Struck from one troy ounce of 0.999 fine silver, the coin features a striking reverse proof finish that highlights its detailed artistry through contrasting frosted and mirror-like surfaces. The reverse side of the coin showcases a seahorse nestled within a bed of sea grass, set against a stylized mosaic background pattern. The word SEAHORSE is inscribed alongside the weight and purity of the metal, which reads 1 OZ SILVER 999. On the obverse, the Samoan crest is featured prominently. This side displays the national motto FA'AVAE I LE ATUA SAMOA alongside the year 2018 and the denomination of 2 Tala. With a mintage limited to just 1,000 pieces, this modern coin represents a unique blend of Pacific island heritage and marine-themed design.
