• Exclusive: This extraordinary collector's piece is available exclusively from Kettner Edelmetalle.
• High-quality finishing: Several technical processes interlock – detailed color printing in a crystal look meets a gold-shimmering rim.
• Material / fineness: A full ounce (31.1 g) of silver with a fineness of 999.9/1,000 – coin silver is rarely processed in a purer form.

Some stories never let go of you. The tale of the little prince, who leaves his asteroid yet always remains, in his thoughts, by his rose, is most certainly one of them. It is precisely this tender moment that the coin "Little Crystal Prince with Rose" from the year 2026 captures. Among modern silver coins, there are only a few designs that carry so much warmth, longing, and quiet poetry within them. And hardly any of them appears in such a small mintage.

✔ A planet, a rose, a promise

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry published his story in 1943 – a year before his death. Since then, the slim book has accompanied generations of readers. His hero lives on asteroid B 612, which is hardly bigger than a house. There he conscientiously cleans his volcanoes and tends to a single, headstrong rose.

The obverse of this coin takes up precisely this image. The prince kneels on his small celestial body, his scarf fluttering far behind him in the starry wind. With an outstretched hand, he touches the blossom, which seems to glow in deep red. To the left, a fine plume of smoke rises from a volcano, while sparkling crystal shards and a shimmering moon float all around. Behind it: the Milky Way in deep blue and luminous violet. Along the lower edge, in golden letters, runs the inscription "1 OZ 9999 FINE SILVER 2026".

✔ The reverse: The fox and the brightest star

The second side also tells a scene. Here the prince stands upright on a glittering mountain ridge, the wind tugging at his coat, his gaze directed upward – towards a brightly shining star. Beside him sits the fox, that wise companion who teaches him that what truly matters can only be seen with the heart. On the right edge, the face value "20 DOLLARS" shines in gold, with a small emblem beneath it. Two scenes, one story. Anyone who turns the coin within its capsule essentially turns a page of the fairy tale.

✔ Crystal look without crystals – finishing with an eye for detail

The name already reveals it: prince, rose, fox, and planet appear as if composed of cut glass. Countless facets seem to refract the light in every direction. However, there are no real crystals or applied stones on the coin – the entire facet effect is created solely through high-resolution color printing. This is precisely where the artistry lies. Every edge and every reflection of light was designed in such a way that, upon viewing, the illusion of depth and shine emerges.

The design is framed by a partially gold-plated rim, whose reeded edge carries the golden glow all the way into the side view. This work is carried out with great precision by a specialized partner company in Germany, which finishes the coins afterwards exclusively for Kettner Edelmetalle.

One hundred coins, one fairy tale – and perhaps one of them will soon have its permanent place in your collection.

✔ Why a mintage of 100 pieces is so special

Classic bullion coins such as the Maple Leaf, the Vienna Philharmonic, the Kookaburra, or the American Eagle are produced year after year in mintages running into the millions. Their strength lies in their pure metal value and worldwide recognition. A finished motif coin follows an entirely different logic. Here, what counts is the design, the craftsmanship, the condition – and above all, scarcity.

With a mintage of only 100 pieces, the Little Crystal Prince belongs to those issues that, as experience shows, quickly end up in the firm hands of collectors. Compared to a bullion coin, the price is naturally well above the pure material value, since you are acquiring an artistically designed piece from a small series. In return, you receive a genuine rarity, whose strict limitation lays the foundation for its potential. There can be no guarantee of future prices. However, sought-after designs in such small mintages are particularly coveted among collectors. If you already own other crystal editions from our range, such as the Crystal Golden Eagle or the Red Crystal Butterfly, you will find here an atmospheric addition from the Art & Culture series.

✔ Silver – the noble foundation of every collector's coin

Beneath the color and gold lies a full ounce of fine silver. The white metal gives the coin a material core that extends beyond mere collector's interest:

• Profits from the sale of physical silver in Germany are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.
• For thousands of years, silver has served as a coinage metal and is regarded in many cultures as a symbol of prosperity and prestige.
• Electronics, solar, and medical technology ensure consistently high industrial demand.
• Silver is durable and retains its physical properties over generations – ideal for passing on a collection one day.

Many buyers also value the precious metal as a traditional building block for inflation hedge and crisis protection. With this edition, however, the joy of collecting is clearly at the forefront.
