Investors all over the world know the American Silver Eagle as the bullion coin of the United States. In the Space Blue edition, the familiar design appears in deep blue, complemented by a hologram that shimmers in the colours of the rainbow. The result is a piece for collectors who are looking for something special.

Lady Liberty in blue

Lady Liberty, the symbol of freedom, is depicted in a long, flowing gown, together with a sun with wide rays. The striding Liberty is one of the best-known coin designs in American history. On this edition, she stands against a blue background that matches the name Space Blue and clearly brings out the silver contours of the figure. Also legible are LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST and the date 2020.

Colour and hologram as a finish

The coin itself comes from the United States Mint. The colour and hologram were applied later in a separate step, and the mintage of 250 pieces refers to this enhanced edition. The hologram creates a rainbow shimmer that changes with every viewing angle. If you move the coin in the light, the colours travel across the design while the blue remains calm. Every piece comes with a certificate of authenticity.

The American Eagle as its foundation

For decades, the American Eagle has been the official silver bullion coin of the United States. Its face value is 1 US dollar, and its name recalls the bald eagle, the heraldic animal of the USA. The eagle also adorns the other side of the coin. This origin gives the coloured edition its solid foundation: one ounce of fine silver from one of the best-known coin series in the world.

A collector's piece with a small mintage

What sets the Space Blue apart from the standard bullion coin is its limited mintage. Only 250 pieces were issued. Such a strictly limited issue is a genuine rarity. For a collection of coloured silver coins, it is a piece you will enjoy showing and keep for a long time.

Naturally, this coin also contains one ounce of silver, a piece of precious metal that serves as an inflation hedge and as crisis protection. Here, though, the decisive factor is the pleasure of a collector's coin that shows a classic in new colours.
