On December 7th 1973, astronauts boarded Apollo 17 for a legendary mission to the Moon. A spectacular photo of Earth was taken at a distance of roughly 28,000 miles and became known as the “Blue Marble”. It captured the Earth in stunning clarity resembling, well, a blue marble.
The 2022 Blue Marble is proof struck in 1 troy oz of .999 pure silver by the Mint of Poland. The obverse features the Island of Fiji’s coat of arms on the concave side. The reverse/convex side features the iconic image capturing the Mediterranean Sea, the continent of Africa and the South Pole.
The Blue Marble was struck by the prestigious Mint of Poland, recognized as the most technologically advanced mint. With a limited mintage of just 1000 coins, the Blue Marble is favorite among coin enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Direct from the mint, the 2022 Blue Marble is absolutely remarkable. Each coin arrives encapsulated and housed in a theme designed display box along with a certificate of authenticity |
