DESCRIPTION
Thousands of years ago, a cascading meteor shower graced the Earth's skies. Among these celestial visitors, Campo del Cielo emerged as a legendary marvel, boasting the distinction of being the second-largest meteorite ever discovered.
This extraordinary meteorite is known as a collective assemblage of iron meteorites and is forever entwined with the "Field of Heaven", an evocative name of the very site where these meteorite fragments crashed upon the Earth's surface 4000-5000 years ago.
An impact explosion created an unimaginable meteorite field in an ellipse shape. From this stellar piece arises a remarkable Campo del Cielo coin, a part of the Cube Coin collection. The 1 oz silver coin acts as a crater that embraces a 1 oz meteorite cube. The collision between a collectible coin and a pure meteorite has given birth to a creation that emanates a singular ambiance, capturing the essence of both the terrestrial and celestial realms. With each touch, one can connect with the cosmic and otherworldly, thanks to the artistry of MINT XXI.
