2025 Perth Mint Ferris Wheel 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin

Description

DETAILS

First introduced at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago by civil engineer George Washington Gale Ferris Jr., the Ferris wheel captivated audiences with its engineering brilliance and breathtaking views. The motive behind its creation was intended to rival the Eiffel Tower in terms of architectural marvel and international appeal. Today, from fairs and carnivals to amusement parks across the globe, the Ferris wheel continues to embody the
nostalgia, wonder and spirit of these cherished events.

The obverse of this coin portrays an array of traditional carnival motifs. Arranged in a clockwise pattern from the top is a night sky dotted with stars, clouds, and suspended fairy lights. The scene depicts coloured hot air balloons, a jovial merry-go-round, a soaring flying swing, children playing, carnival tents, balloons, and an exhilarating rollercoaster ride. Also included in the design is the 2025 year-date, surrounded by coloured fireworks, and The
Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

The coin’s centre features a special rotating Ferris wheel insert adorned with multicoloured Swarovski crystals and 24-carat gold plating on an alloy base.

The coin is housed in a classic display case with a clear lid. Packaged within an illustrated shipper, each coin is accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity.
