2019 Apollo 11 Clad Commemorative Half Dollar Proof w/Rose Gold & Black Ruthenium

Land on a Different Kind of Moon

On July 20, 1969, the people of Earth were glued to their television sets. Before their very eyes, a door opened, a ladder descended, and a man first set foot on the surface of the Moon. The footprints, the flag and plaque left on the lunar surface sent an eternal message throughout the cosmos: humanity had finally reached the heavens, and America led the way.

In honor of the 50th anniversary of NASA’s Apollo 11 mission, Congress authorized the release of this special, limited-edition commemorative half dollar Proof. Not just any half dollar, it represents just the second time in history that the U.S. Mint has struck a coin with a curved surface! On the coin’s obverse is the indented footprint left by astronaut Neil Armstrong along with the names of the space programs that led to such a historic moment: MERCURY, GEMINI and APOLLO separated by phases of the Moon. Flip the coin over and you’ll see the outward curve of an astronaut’s helmet. The design recreates a close-up of the famous photograph snapped by Neil Armstrong of Buzz Aldrin.

The designs on this popular coin are incredibly detailed, and at 30.607 mm in diameter, it’s the perfect size to showcase every nuance of the intricate details. And now you can secure one of these historic half dollars lavished in a combination of Black Ruthenium and Rose Gold! The contrast between the deep black color and the pink hues of the Rose Gold really sets these coins apart!

You’ll have a blast adding this coin to your collection, but don’t wait too long; when they’re gone, they’re gone! So, don’t miss this historic release – it’s one small purchase for you and one giant leap for your collection!
