DESCRIPTION
Icarus, the youth who soared too close to the sun, stands as a symbol of humanity’s relentless pursuit of the impossible — a dream that dares to defy fate.
Suspended between courage and collapse on this 1 oz silver coin, he reaches toward a gilded sun, unaware that his downfall is moments away. The design captures the fragile threshold between aspiration and consequence, where dreams take flight and destiny descends.
