A real treasure from the 17th century is reproduced on a 2 ounce pure silver coin. The history of the Swedish ship named “Vasa” is quite bizarre.  Although being the most high-tech warship of the day, it sank after 20 minutes into its maiden voyage, killing 30 passengers.

The reason for it remains a mystery to this day.  In 1961, 98% of the ship’s original wood was found still intact.

Hailed, “The most spectacular warship ever built” it has been beautifully recreated on this stunning numismatic collectible.

Highlights:

High relief strike and antique finish
Incredibly vibrant multi-colored application
Extremely limited to just 500 coins worldwide
Niue legal tender
