Description

The Spinning Coin 2024 introduces a fresh design and enhanced functionality, making it an exciting addition to any collection. This second edition boasts a 22% taller shaft, now reaching 15.4mm, enabling easier and longer spins thanks to improved production technology. The spinning top, with roots dating back over 6,000 years, was used by ancient cultures not just for play, but for prophecy and games of chance. Romans crafted tops from materials like boxwood and terracotta. Today, these tops, like the Spinning Coin, offer a blend of entertainment and nostalgic charm, perfect for a friendly spinning competition.

Struck in 1 oz of .9999 fine silver, this Cook Islands-issued coin comes with an antique finish and a limited mintage of 999 pieces. With a face value of 5 dollars and a size of 35mm, it combines historical significance with modern craftsmanship. Collectors and enthusiasts alike will appreciate its unique form and captivating spin.
