Basketball is a sport played and enjoyed by millions around the world, and this distinctive silver coin was released to commemorate it. It incorporates a number of innovative features which are the result of modern, 21st century minting technology and will make a wonderful addition to your collection.
Coin Design Highlights
This coin is comprised of a single ounce of silver with a purity of 99.9 percent, but this is where its similarities with other silver coins end. It has a revolutionary three dimensional domed shape which was fed by hand into a mint press and then triple struck utilizing a special coining die, which gives it exceptional detail. The face of the coin features a domed basketball which appears to jump out towards the viewer when they see it, while the obverse side is convex, which creates the illusion of the basketball traveling through a hoop. Simply put, the design of this product is ingenious, there is nothing else like it on the market, and as you can imagine supplies are limited.
