Cameroon – 2025 – 2000 Francs – Nantan Meteorite 50gr silver

Description

The Nantan coin features an extraordinary centerpiece on the reverse: a genuine fragment of
the Nantan meteorite, discovered in Guangxi, China, in 1958. Originating from the asteroid belt
between Mars and Jupiter, this ancient traveler spent millennia journeying through space before
reaching Earth.
The obverse displays the meteorite’s original coordinates, grounding its cosmic story in a precise
moment of discovery. The Meteorite Geography collection offers a rare chance to hold a piece of
the universe — a symbol of humanity’s enduring fascination with the cosmos.
