2004 The First Moon Walk 35th Anniversaey 1oz Silver Hologram Proof Coin

A hugely innovative coin from the Perth Mint with an incredible hologram on the reverse.

Struck from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality, the coin celebrates the 35th anniversary of man's first walk on the moon, an historic event broadcast to millions worldwide via Australia's radio telescope at Parkes Observatory, NSW.

The coin's reverse incorporates three NASA pictures of Apollo 11's momentous mission. Using Dynamic Imaging (developed by Kodak), the high-quality colour images 'morph' miraculously from one to another as the viewing angle is changed.

The images depict the Apollo 11 Saturn Five space rocket, astronaut Buzz Aldrin's space suit and helmet, and the deployment of the United States flag on the surface of the moon by Armstrong and Aldrin.

The purchase price is well worth the time you look at this fascinating coin - you won't put it down for at least a few minutes when you start moving those holograms around.

The coin, case, outer shipper, and certificate are all included and remain in excellent condition.
