The design on this one-ounce silver coin is a colorized image of the Manhattan skyline at night with the Brooklyn Bridge in the foreground. In the background an inscription reads, “BIG CITY LIGHTS.” Almost all the best views of Manhattan from Brooklyn are along the East River waterfront. A brilliant feat of 19th-century engineering, the Brooklyn Bridge is an essential piece of the New York City state of mind. It’s also an iconic landmark that has been designated a National Historic Landmark by the United States National Park Service and is revered across the world. The design really comes to life thanks to the CIT’s SmartMinting© technology that creates the image in fantastic High Relief. The combination of the deep relief combined with the coin’s colorized finish is simply stunning. It’s almost as if you can step into the coin and explore its brightly lit streets!

Released on Behalf of the Cook Islands, this $5 legal-tender coin also comes in gorgeous Proof condition, meaning it was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. It’s an exciting coin for any collector who loves dreaming about the bright lights of Broadway, the shopping, the fashion, the culture, and all the other things that make New York one of the greatest cities in the world!
