2019-P 2-Pc Apollo 11 50th Anniversary Silver Coin/Bar Set

On July 20, 1969, humanity achieved the unimaginable when Neil Armstrong took his historic first steps on the lunar surface. This modern commemorative set honors the fiftieth anniversary of that monumental achievement, combining a proof silver coin and a specially crafted silver bar. Together, the two pieces contain a total of 2.8595 troy ounces of 0.999 fine silver. The United States one dollar coin in this set was struck at the Philadelphia Mint. Its front side features a detailed depiction of an astronaut's footprint pressed into the soft lunar dust, with the names of the pioneering Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo space programs inscribed above. On the reverse, a creative perspective shows the reflection in Buzz Aldrin's helmet visor, revealing Neil Armstrong, the American flag, and the lunar lander against the vastness of space. Accompanying the coin is a two-ounce silver bar that mirrors the space exploration theme. The surface of the bar is adorned with detailed imagery of the moon and the Apollo 11 spacecraft, creating a visual narrative of the journey that captivated the world.
