Additional information

Nicaragua issued this piece to mark the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11, joining a crowded field of global commemoratives released in 2019. The half-gram format places it firmly in the micro-gold category that became commercially popular with smaller central banks through licensed mint partnerships — Nicaragua has no domestic precious metals refining infrastructure of its own.
