3D Bell-Shaped Proof Silver Coin
Description
To create this exceptional coin, the mint of Poland has implemented the most innovative minting technologies. The first stage required preparation and evaluation of a 3D model of the coin. In order to assure its perfect bell shape and map the images on it, the engineers created a special 6-element die. The bell-shaped coin is the first of its kind to bear internal relief! It was struck from 4 oz silver 999 proof and measures 40,60 x 40,60 x 33,10 mm. Antique finish and 24K gold-plated versions are also available.
Broken before installation during the 1737 Kremlin fire, the Royal Bell has never been suspended or rung. Weighing over 200 tons, the artifact is the largest bell in the world. Its surface has been adorned with relief images of baroque angels, saints and life-size effigies of Tsar Alexey and Empress Anna. Today, this unique masterpiece of bell-founding art may become the pride of your numismatic collection!
