The “intriguing yet extremely affordable UFO coin” made of .9909 fine titanium is so described by distributor Talisman Coins, which offers the coin for sale.
The UFO coin is made of .9909 fine titanium, according to distributor Talisman Coins, which offers the coin for sale.
The “intriguing yet extremely affordable” coin is available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, struck on 31.1-gram, 40-millimeter rounds.
While not rare, titanium is an uncommon metal for coinage. It is generally considered a “space age metal,” since it is the same chemical element from which jet airplanes are built.
Titanium is both an element and a wonder of nature. Harder than steel yet far lighter in weight, it makes sense that jet fighter airframes would be made from titanium.
It’s hard to find, hard to mine, hard to refine — and very hard to mint using conventional coin presses, precisely because it is so very hard.
Titanium has chemical, mechanical, and electrochemical properties superior to most metals for many purposes, from human joint replacement to flight.
The reverse shows a flying saucer hovering over North America, its tractor beam aimed directly at Washington, D.C. The legends UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT and I WANT TO BELIEVE indicate the theme.
The obverse features an effigy of King Charles III (artist unidentified), in profile facing left. The legend CHARLES III, the date of issue and denomination also appear, while the legend TI .990 1 OZ verifies the metal’s weight and purity.
The coin is encapsulated inside a presentation case, and a full color certificate of authenticity is included.
The coin has a mintage limit of 1,500 pieces and retails for $44.95, with quantity discounts available.
