Description
The reverse of this interesting Silver coin features two of the fastest ships – the “Taeping” and “Ariel” and marks the 150th anniversary of The Great Tea Race, in 1866. The coin is very attractive thanks to a new technology – Smartminting - with unprecedented dimensions of high reliefs. The design of these coin issues is based on the oil painting by famous British maritime artist Jack Spurling. It shows the close finish between the two ships in the English Channel after a three-month head-to-head race. All around of the reverse, the inscriptions: “The Great Tea Race of 1866”, “Be The First To Dock In London” and “150th Anniversary 2016”. On the coin's obverse the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the face value – 10 Dollars and the year – 2016.
