American Liberty and Admire meteorite – the third version of Atlas of Meteorites

     Admire meteorite owes its name to the town where its block was found in 1881. It occurred to be one of the rarest pallasites, which is a class of stony-iron meteorites. The pieces of this extraordinary finding have been placed on the reverse side of the coin "1$ Admire Meteorite USA Liberty".

The image of the coin, known for several dozen years as the American Eagle, underwent minor modifications. Owing to the UV printing technique which has put on the colour on both the obverse and reverse sides, the giant Sun has become planet Earth and the background has been brightened by the cosmic space paced by Admire meteorite. Similarly to the two previous issues, the whole coin is ornamented by rose gold.

The coin is perfectly harmonised in terms of colours and genuinely precisely manufactured. The advantage of this issue is also a volume limited to 500 pieces.
