This Kilo Silver Coin Captures The Unique Statues Of Easter Island In Stunning High Relief

The mysteries of Easter Island have intrigued many people over the years, and there aren’t a lot of solid answers to the questions—starting with the date a small group of Polynesians discovered the island, making it their home and naming it Rapa Nui. Some say it was around the year 800, others say it was closer to 1200. Why their civilization collapsed is also much debated. Some believe it was due to dwindling resources caused by deforestation and starvation brought on by human consumption of the island’s resources. Others believe it was due to rats that had hitched a ride with the Polynesians and then consumed the lush palm trees by eating the seeds, preventing new vegetation from growing.

Regardless of why the civilization collapsed, the inhabitants left behind close to 900 statues created to honor their ancestors. The statues—known as the Moai—were carved out of giant blocks of stone each averaging 13 feet tall and weighing 14 tons. This gigantic coin (it measures nearly 4 inches in diameter!) pays tribute to the iconic monoliths that call Easter Island Home. It’s a sumptuous and tactile High Relief coin struck in a full kilo of highly pure 99.9% fine silver and it’s like no coin you’ve ever seen before!

You Won’t Be Able To Take Your Eyes Off Of This Coin!

Released on behalf of Samoa, a Polynesian island country in the South Pacific Ocean, this $25 legal-tender coin tells the story of Rapa Nui, with a reverse that depicts the mysterious nature of the island’s history and culture highlighted by the designs of its gigantic Moai Statues and accompanied by other cultural depictions such as the bird man in the center of the coin. To create the desired effect, the coin was minted using a multi-layer technique with a combination of concave and raised features that adds depth to the coin and creates stunning relief that is truly amazing. In addition, each coin has been put through extra steps to give it a unique antiqued finish that add an unsurpassed degree of depth and dimension to its already High Relief detail. Typically applied by hand, the addition of this antique finish means that no two coins are exactly alike!
