Shire Post Mint | Super Full Moon | Large 1.5" Silver Coin

A supermoon is a full (or new) moon that has a larger-than-usual appearance due to the closeness of the moon's orbit. The Shire Post Mint Super Moon is literally bigger at 1.5" in diameter and lets you carry the moon with you where ever you go. This broadstruck coin of Earth's Moon features a geographically (or selenographically) correct 136,794,240:1 scale design of the surface texture of both sides. This moon coin is an ideal gift and makes a great worry or memento coin.

Minting process

Treated to look as if it has been handled and circulated, this process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science, coloring and patinas will vary. No two are exactly the same. 

Coins are struck one at a time in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. A colorful description is included with history and facts about the coin.
