2021 2 Cedis Ghana Bi-Color Silver Space Shuttle Program 32 Grams (G) Coin with Presentation Box and COA (Certificate of Authenticity)

On April 12, 1981, the space shuttle Columbia lifted into orbit to become the first reusable orbital spacecraft, fulfilling the dreams and ambitions of scientists worldwide, and the visions of science-fiction fans. In the years since and until the space shuttle fleet program was retired in 2011, NASA sent the sleek black-and-white spacecraft into the sky. The space shuttle did everything from launching satellites, making corrections on the Hubble telescope, to conducting experiments in zero gravity. Now pay tribute to the very first shuttle launch by adding this coin to your collection! Will ship in box with COA. Mintage of 1981 worldwide!!

Bi-Color Silver Space Shuttle Program Coin

On the reverse of the coin features a colorized inner ring showing an image of Columbia, the first Space Transportation System (STS) vessel, on the launching pad at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The gantry can be seen to the left while Columbia’s rockets are bursting with smoke as it begins its inexorable climb to the Heavens. At right is the Space Shuttle emblem and around the coin’s outer ring are the inscriptions “SPACE SHUTTLE PROGRAM – STS” and “40th ANNIVERSARY 1981 – 2021.” On the obverse a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is shown along with "REPUBLIC OF GHANA", "2 CEDIS"
