Beschrijving keerzijde Convex reverse featuring a bold swirling vortex design radiating outward from the center in deeply struck concentric spiral ridges, suggestive of a meteorite impact or cosmic energy field. At the center of the vortex, an inlaid triangular piece of genuine Campo del Cielo meteorite is set within a downward-pointing triangular cavity, its dark natural surface contrasting dramatically against the antique-finished silver. The curved legend 'CAMPO DEL CIELO • ARGENTINA' is inscribed along the lower rim in spaced sans-serif capitals, identifying the provenance of the meteorite fragment.

Aanvullende informatie

Campo del Cielo — "Field of Heaven" — is an iron meteorite field in Argentina's Gran Chaco region, with fragments dating to an impact roughly 4,000 to 5,000 years ago. The craters were documented by Spanish conquistadors in 1576, who initially believed the iron had welled up from underground. It remains one of the most prolific sources of meteorite material for the numismatic trade, with fragments incorporated into coins and tokens by dozens of mints over the past two decades.

Ghana's space-themed bullion program has leaned hard into novelty formats since the early 2020s. The cubic form here is a minting exercise more than anything else.
