2025 Samoa 2 oz 3D Baseball Coin

The boundaries of traditional minting are pushed to the limit with this striking 2025 release from Samoa. Crafted from two ounces of 0.999 fine silver, this piece departs from the classic flat coin format to present a fully three-dimensional representation of a baseball. The spherical design is achieved through a specialized two-panel construction, allowing the coin to mimic the physical presence of a regulation ball. Every detail on the curved surface is meticulously executed, featuring high-polish proof finishes that contrast with the intricate, realistic stitching of the baseball seams. The design incorporates the official coat of arms of Samoa alongside a stylized logo themed around the sport. It also features a playful nod to a fictional sports franchise, bearing the name 'The Bullion Bombers'. The Spectres' Ghost mint mark is also integrated into the design. Adding to its appeal for enthusiasts of innovative minting, each of the 1,000 issued pieces features its own individual serial number. Rather than a standard numbering system, the serials are styled as home run tallies, reading in a format from 1 to 1000. This clever thematic touch completes a truly unusual numismatic tribute to the game.
