Vitruvian Man X-Ray 2021 Cook Island 1oz Silver Proof Coin PF70 First Releases Ultra High Relief

Renaissance & Modern Worlds Collide On This One-of-a-Kind Coin

When Leonardo da Vinci completed his famous Vitruvian Man sketch in 1490, it represented a leap forward in medical science showing how the human body functioned. Fast forward more than 400 years later to 1895 and you’ll meet German physicist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, the first person to observe X-Rays, a scientific advancement that was a monumental step forward in the medical world by making visible what was once had been invisible. Now these two hugely consequential achievements have been joined together on this one-of-a-kind coin release that’s as exquisite as it is historic.

Struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% silver, this mind-bending coin combines da Vinci’s Renaissance-era Vitruvian Man drawing with Röntgen’s Modern Age’s X-Ray technology. The Vitruvian Man is shown on the coin’s reverse, while a colorized X-Ray image of the drawing is featured on the coin’s obverse along with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The colorized X-Ray illuminates the design like nothing we’ve ever seen. Enhancing the Vitruvian Man even further is the added element of Coin Invest Trust’s (CIT) sublime use of its Smart-minting® technology to produce fantastic Ultra High Relief detail. Leonardo’s drawing seems as if he’s about to step off the coin and give a lecture in anatomy!
