Mercury is the smallest planet in the Solar System and the one closest to the Sun, with an orbital period of about 88 Earth days, which is much faster than any other planet in the Solar System. Seen from Earth, it appears to move around its orbit in about 116 days. It has no known natural satellites. It is named after the Roman deity Mercury, the messenger to the gods. Partly because it has almost no atmosphere to retain heat, Mercury’s surface temperature varies diurnally more than any other planet in the Solar System, ranging from 100 K (173 °C; 280 °F) at night to 700 K (427 °C; 800 °F) during the day in some equatorial regions. The poles are constantly below 180 K (93 °C; 136 °F). Mercury’s axis has the smallest tilt of any of the Solar System’s planets (about 130 of a degree). However, Mercury’s orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in the Solar System. At aphelion, Mercury is about 1.5 times as far from the Sun as it is at perihelion. Mercury’s surface is heavily cratered and similar in appearance to the Moon, indicating that it has been geologically inactive for billions of years. Extremely high international collectible demand. Highly appreciated in investing in Collectible Coins. 2nd coin in series. Special antique finish (yellow as Mercury planet). Real mercury meteorite, Ultra high relief craters; Convex shape.

31.1 (1 oz). The amazing Martian Meteorite is predestined to be immortalized on this very interesting coin issued by Niue Island with an authentic fragment of meteorite inlaid. It depicts the meteorite NWA 6963 blasted from the Mars surface by an asteroid impact. The coin features Ultra High Relief, Antique Finish quality and a vivid coloration. Mintage limited to only 500 pcs. The colorful coin’s reverse features a real and genuine meteorite NWA 6963 generated by an asteroid or comet impact on Mars and finally landed on the Earth. On top of the coin, the inscription: “Martian Meteorite NWA 6963″. Panoramic space view with the “Red Planet”. The coin’s obverse depicts the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the face value: “One Dollar”, the issue country: “Niue Island” and the issue date: “2016″. Martian Meteorite A Martian meteorite is a rock that formed on the planet Mars and was then ejected from Mars by the impact of an asteroid or comet, and finally landed on the Earth. Of over 61,000 meteorites that have been found on Earth, 132 were identified as Martian as of 3 March 2014. These meteorites are thought to be from Mars because they have elemental and isotopic compositions that are similar to rocks and atmosphere gases analyzed by spacecraft on Mars. On October 17, 2013, NASA reported, based on analysis of argon in the Martian atmosphere by the Mars Curiosity rover, that certain meteorites found on Earth thought to be from Mars were indeed from Mars. The term does not refer to meteorites found on Mars, such as Heat Shield Rock. On January 3, 2013, NASA reported that a meteorite, named NWA 7034 (nicknamed “Black Beauty”), found in 2011 in the Sahara desert, was determined to be from Mars and found to contain ten times the water of other Mars meteorites found on Earth. The meteorite was determined to have formed 2.1 billion years ago during the Amazonian geologic period on Mars.

62.2 (2 oz). The amazing Vesuvius volcano is immortalised on this very interesting 2 Oz Silver coin issued by Niue Island with an authentic fragment of lava inlaid.

This unique and extremely rare Silver coin features the Vesuvius Volcano, with an insert of a piece of lava with an amazing ultra high relief design. The coins obverse depicts the Raphael Maklouf effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination and recall the reverse design. Vesuvius Volcano Mount Vesuvius, on the west coast of Italy, is the only active volcano on mainland Europe. It is best known because of the eruption in A. 79 that destroyed the city of Pompeii. Mount Vesuvius is considered to be one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world due to the large population of the city of Naples and the surrounding towns on the slopes nearby. The volcano is classed as a complex stratovolcano because its eruptions typically involve explosive eruptions as well as pyroclastic flows. Vesuvius and other Italian volcanoes, such as Campi Flegrei and Stromboli, are part of the Campanian volcanic arc. The Campanian arc sits on a tectonic boundary where the African plate is being subducted beneath the Eurasian plate. Under Vesuvius, scientists have detected a tear in the African plate. This slab window allows heat from the Earths mantle layer to melt the rock of the African plate building up pressure that causes violent explosive eruptions. In the past, Mount Vesuvius has had a roughly 20-year eruption cycle, but the last serious eruption was in 1944.

Extremely low mintage 666 coins in the world. 1st coin of EVOLUTION OF EARTH series. Legal tender collectible coin. Innovative minting technique 3.7 mm relief. Ruthenium and Gold plated. Special wooden box with theme print. Extremely low mintage 666 coins. Edge of the coin with gold plated. Trilobites are a fossil group of extinct marine arthropods that form the class Trilobita. Trilobites form one of the earliest known groups of arthropods. The first appearance of trilobites in the fossil record defines the base of the Atdabanian stage of the Early Cambrian period (521 million years ago), and they flourished throughout the lower Paleozoic era before beginning a drawn-out decline to extinction when, during the Devonian, all trilobite orders except the Proetids died out. Trilobites finally disappeared in the mass extinction at the end of the Permian about 250 million years ago. The trilobites were among the most successful of all early animals, roaming the oceans for over 270 million years. Extremely high international collectible demand. Highly appreciated in investing in Collectible Coins. Special minting technique 3.7mm relief; Ruthenium and Gold plated; Ultra high relief craters. Wooden box and color package.

Extremely low mintage 99 coins in the world. Premium Handmade Antique finish. Real mars meteorite NWA 6963; High relief. For the coin + for the meteorite. Each coin has a piece of Meteorite NWA 6963. Real Mars meteorite inlay. Pure silver 1 Kilo. Very low mintage of just 99 coins in the world. Legal tender of Niue Island (New Zealand Dollar). Certificate of Authenticity + certificate for the meteorite. NWA stands for Northwest Africa, which is where this particular meteorite was found. The hunter continued collecting pieces in the same area for about 6 months. In mid-May, 2012, the NWA 6963 locality, near the river Oued Touflit, became widely known and hundreds of meteorite hunters went to the area searching for more pieces. Pieces ranging from 100 to 700 g have been recovered, as well as a few small pieces (3-10 g), most of them are broken and partially covered by a thin fusion crust. The total mass may be as much as 8-10 kg. The timing of the release of these coins is excellent as Mars has been in the news a lot recently. In addition to the current plan for volunteers to at some point go to Mars and live there for the rest of their lives and last year’s hit movie with Matt Damon, The Martian, which won Academy Awards, there is brand-new research about the surface of Mars. 3.4 billion years ago when a large asteroid hit the planet, it triggered tsunamis that covered several hundred thousand square miles of the planet with water that has been frozen in the years since then. Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second-smallest planet in the Solar System, after Mercury. Named after the Roman god of war, it is often referred to as the “Red Planet” because the iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it areddish appearance. Mars is a terrestrial planetwith a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moonand the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second-highest known mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in the Solar System. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature. Mars has two moons, Phobos andDeimos, which are small and irregularly shaped. These may be captured asteroids, similar to 5261 Eureka, a Mars trojan. Extremely high international collectible demand. Highly appreciated in investing in Collectible Coins.
