Niue – 2025 – 2 Dollars – Walkman TechStalgic series PLAIN VERSION

Description

This extraordinary 2 oz Silver coin from the “TechStalgic” series pays tribute to one of the most iconic inventions of the late 20th century — the Walkman. Born in 1979, it changed how the world listened to music: portable, personal, and profoundly emotional. It was freedom in your pocket — rebellion wrapped in rhythm. The Walkman became a symbol of youth, intimacy, and individuality. Mixtapes turned into confessions. Headphones became halos. Two people could share a single song, a single heartbeat, through a shared wire. This coin captures that era in radiant Silk Finish with delicate Proof accents, evoking the tactile nostalgia of pressed buttons and magnetic tape. On the reverse, the Walkman’s open lid, volume sliders, and tape deck are rendered with astonishing realism, complete with the inscriptions “COYNS” and “SOUNDCOIN”. Flip it, and the obverse reveals the device’s back — the battery panel, cassette ribbon, and the Public Seal of Niue, framed by the inscriptions “SILVER .999,” “2 DOLLARS,” “NIUE ISLAND,” and “2025.” Limited to just 499 pieces worldwide, this .999 fine silver coin is a timeless echo of analog emotion—where music, memory, and metal intertwine.
