Set to shake the foundations of the collector market, we are delighted to present the Richter Scale 2025 $1 1oz Silver Proof Coin!
Struck to the height of Proof quality from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver, and expertly enhanced with full-colour, this official legal tender coin commemorates the 90th anniversary of the Richter Scale. Developed by Charles Richter and Beno Gutenberg, the Richter Scale was first presented in a key academic work by Richter in 1935. Based on a scale of 1.0 to 9.9, the Richter Scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake.
A dramatic example of the power of modern minting, the Richter Scale 2025 $1 1oz Silver Proof Coin captures the essence of an earthquake through the expert application of full-colour. United with a bright red portrayal of the Richter Scale in action, the use of full-colour creates the illusion of deep cracks in the coin, representing the deadly fissures created by earthquakes!
With the tiny limited edition of 600 sure to be devastated by demand, immediate action is essential. Click add to cart now!
Earthquakes!
An earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the earth by a seismic event.
Such as event is caused largely by the rupture of geological faults, by also potentially as a result of volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts or nuclear tests. Millions of earthquakes occur every year – most not being discernible by anything other than seismographs – but the most powerful earthquakes throughout history have triggered some of the world’s most devastating natural disasters.
As a result, earthquakes are deeply embedded in modern culture as perhaps the most terrifying example of the power of nature, and the Richter Scale has become inextricably linked with human understanding of these extraordinary events. This superbly designed coin forms the perfect tribute to the 90th anniversary of the Richter Scale.
