[QUOTE="SPC CENTS, post: 3052728, member: 93978"]I got the straight dope on the 2019 Commemerative coins tonight. You may know that it commemorates the 1969 moon landing and I believe the obverse image is common knowledge. Many of you may also know the coins are convex/ concave. Here's what you may not know. The reverse image will be the helmet visor with a reflection of the first footprint on the moon. The curvature of the coin makes the footprint look like its splashing up from the surface of the moon. Additionally, the coins will have a reeded edge, which the previous curved coin issue (baseball glove) did not have. But wait, there's more! The will be a 5 ounce silver puck too! There will be a set which includes $1, half dollar and Quarter Eagle in addition to the 5 ounce puck. I got this info from a member of the CCAC committee that had the final say on the design on behalf of the CCAC. He asked us to keep it under our hats, so I won't mention his name. I'm definitely planning to buy all these coins[/QUOTE]
