2016 Cameroon 5,000 Francs 7-oz Silver Gold-Plated Trans-Siberian Railway Egg Proof
Travel Back in Time with These Egg-Shaped Trans-Siberian Railroad Silver Proofs!
Just as our Trans-Continental Railroad led to the development of the Western U.S., Russia’s Trans-Siberian Railroad opened up vast stretches of Russia to settlement.
To celebrate the accomplishment, Czar Nicholas II gave his wife Alexandra a Fabergé Easter Egg showing a miniature replica of a steam locomotive with five carriages attached to it. The train can be wound up and run with a tiny gold key.
Today, the original Trans-Siberian Railroad Fabergé Egg is housed in the Kremlin Armory Museum in Moscow. These unique 2016 Trans-Siberian Railroad Egg Proofs reproduce the train images from the original egg. Using a six-element die, the coins were struck in the shape of an egg, with the train in the center. The top and bottom show the denomination, the weight and the coat of arms of the Republic of Cameroon, the issuing country.
