When the full moon rises over the Platz der Republik and the sandstone façade glows in warm light, Berlin reveals its most magical side. This is exactly the moment captured by the 1 oz Silver Berlin by Night – Reichstag Building 2026. A building that, like hardly any other, stands for German history, captured in glowing colors and framed by golden shine. For lovers of capital city motifs, this edition ranks among the most beautiful silver coins in the "Cities and Landscapes" series.

✔ A night panorama that glows

The obverse shows the Reichstag building head-on, just as one experiences it from the lawn of the Platz der Republik: the column-supported portico, the four massive corner towers, above them the glass dome. Two German flags in black, red and gold flutter atop the towers. The façade shines golden-yellow, lanterns line the path. And the sky? A blaze of fiery red clouds, above them deep night-blue, a bright full moon and the shimmering violet band of the Milky Way. The inscription "1 OZ 9999 FINE SILVER 2026" runs around the edge.

The reverse shifts the perspective. Here the dome moves right up close – you can make out the steel ribs, the glass and the spiral ramps inside, which look like golden threads in the light. Glass balustrades are reflected on the roof terrace, on the left one of the historic corner towers rises into the evening sky. On the right edge you can read "20 DOLLARS", below it the coat of arms of Liberia is displayed prominently.

✔ A landmark with an eventful history

The Reichstag was built between 1884 and 1894 according to the plans of architect Paul Wallot, in the Neo-Renaissance style, as the parliament building of the German Empire. The famous pediment inscription "Dem Deutschen Volke" ("To the German People") was only added in 1916. On 9 November 1918, Philipp Scheidemann proclaimed the Republic from a window of the building. Fire, war and reconstruction left deep marks – until British architect Sir Norman Foster fundamentally redesigned the building after reunification.

Since April 1999, the German Bundestag has convened in the Reichstag building – and its walk-in glass dome has become a symbol of transparency and democracy.

The dome measures around 38 meters in diameter. Inside, a funnel-shaped cone with 360 mirrors directs daylight into the plenary chamber, while two opposing ramps lead visitors up to the viewing platform. It is precisely this combination of imperial-era architecture and modern glass construction that makes the design so appealing.

✔ The finishing – color, gold and precision

What sets this edition apart from an ordinary silver coin is its elaborate post-processing. Both sides feature a brilliant color application that reveals even fine details such as rows of windows, stars and light reflections. The partially gilded outer ring frames the image like an elegant border, while the reeded edge provides a pleasant feel. This work is carried out in Germany with great care and craftsman's precision. The manufacturer's statement refers to the coin, not to the finishing.

✔ Coin instead of medal – the fine difference

Berlin motifs are plentiful on the market: as a silver medal, as a silver bar featuring the Brandenburg Gate, or as a commemorative coin with a high mintage. Here, two things make the difference. First, this piece carries an official face value and is therefore a genuine coin, not a medal. Second, it combines colored design, partial gilding and a micro-mintage in a single object. Classic bullion coins are often issued in the millions and score points with the smallest possible premium over material value. Anyone seeking something special, however, will find here a collector's item with real character. One final tip: leave the coin in its capsule, so that the color and shine remain permanently protected.

✔ Silver – the ideal carrier metal for collectors

With a fineness of 999.9/1,000, this piece ranks among the purest coins ever minted. The white precious metal has accompanied mankind for millennia as a monetary metal and symbol of prosperity – and brings with it properties that collectors also appreciate:

• Profits from the sale of physical silver are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.
• Silver is durable and retains its physical properties across generations.
• Electronics, solar and medical technology ensure continuous industrial demand.
• Supply is limited, the raw material is traded worldwide and is highly liquid.
• Compared to gold, silver remains affordable – ideal for building up one's own collection.

Incidentally, physical precious metal has always embodied inflation hedge and crisis protection. In this edition, however, the collector's value is clearly the main focus.

✔ Potential for value appreciation through strict limitation

A mintage of just 100 pieces is remarkably low even among refined collector's coins. This strict limitation makes every single piece a genuine rarity – and anyone who acquires one joins a very small circle of owners. A concrete promise of returns is legally not possible. However, experience shows that strictly limited editions with a strong design tend to be particularly sought after over the years.
