Silver Niobium Coin Renewable Energy

Sustainability is one of the great buzzwords of the 21st century – and one of its greatest commitments. In a world of increasingly scarce resources, renewable energy plays a crucial role. This theme is dedicated to the Silver Niob coin in 2010.

Inspired by the life cycle of nature, our engraver Helmut Andexlinger has planted a tree in the radiant blue core of the coin. The wind blows the leaves from the tree to the ground. And thus begins the spiral that symbolizes the cycle of life with the four elements – earth, wind, fire, and water. The deeply rooted tree represents a healthy ecosystem.

The second side of the coin shows all forms of renewable energy. Water drives a turbine, geothermal energy produces steam. A wind power plant is depicted as well as sunlight being captured by solar cells. The 25-euro Silver Niob coin symbolizes a highly relevant topic of today that will not lose its relevance anytime soon.

With a maximum mintage of 65,000 pieces, this coin was released in the quality 'Handpicked'. 'Renewable Energy' consists of 900 silver in the outer ring and pure niobium inside. Each coin is packaged in both a capsule and a box. A special certificate guarantees its authenticity.
