2021 Cameroon 500 Francs 17.5-gm Silver Neptune Ruthenium Proof
Capture The Icey Blue Beauty Of Planet Neptune
Named after the Roman god of the sea, Neptune is the eighth planet in the Earth’s solar system and the farthest from the Sun—Pluto, formerly the solar system’s ninth planet, was reclassified from a planet to a dwarf planet in 2006. More than 30 times as far from the Sun as Earth, Neptune is the only planet in our solar system not visible to the naked eye and the first predicted by mathematics before its discovery. A slow-moving celestial body, in 2011 Neptune completed its first 165-year orbit of the Sun since its discovery in 1846! Now you can hold this distant planet in the palm of your hands thanks to this gorgeous and highly detailed coin!
Extraordinary Piece That Will Please Every Astronomy Lover
Using today’s technologically advanced equipment, the prestigious Mint of Poland was able to capture Neptune’s haunting beauty on this uniquely decorated coin that’s sure to please every astronomy lover. The image was achieved through digital printing and the coin comes decorated with a magnifying lens. Struck in 17.5 grams of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, the coin was further enhanced with a rich layer of Black Ruthenium that creates a remarkable contrast with the colorized depiction of Neptune. As a final touch, the coin has been selectively gilded in fine gold to highlight the planets of the solar system.
The Solar System’s Blue Methane Giant
Neptune holds the well-earned title as the windiest planet in our solar system, with momentous gusts that can surpass more than 1,200 miles an hour. It’s also one of the most beautiful planets with a blue sapphire hue. That soothing color is a result of the methane in Neptune’s atmosphere that absorbs red light and reflects blue, giving the planet its beautiful and iconic blue tint. Our first close-up view of Neptune occurred on August 25, 1989, when NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft made a close flyby of Neptune and revealed the planet’s soothing sapphire expanse and the whirling wind-swept chaos in the form of cloudy bands and massive gyres that looked like dark smudges on the planet’s surface. The flyby also discovered five moons, four rings, and a “Great Dark Spot.” A giant ice planet composed primarily of gases and liquids; Neptune has no well-defined solid surface. For astrologers, Neptune is the gatekeeper of illusion and the subconscious and is the symbol of dreams, imagination, and intuition.
