2016 Cook Islands Milestones of Mankind Egyptian Labyrinth 1.6 oz Silver Proof Coin

The coin «Milestones of Mankind» features so many highlights – it could become a milestone of modern numismatics itself. It portrays the Egyptian labyrinth as described by Athanasius Kircher (1602 -1680), with a level of detail that is beyond comparison.

Moreover, each of the 999 boxes also displays a section of this mystical labyrinth, thus transforming each individual box into a unique collector‘s item. Only if all the boxes were assembled together, would the whole picture and maybe even the legendary treasure be revealed.

This unique collector’s coin is produced using smartminting©. The gradually increasing depression towards the centre of the coin, holds a specially developed and fully functional micro-labyrinth.
