Obverse

For the obverse design of 2019 $1 Proof Apollo 11 50^th Anniversary Silver Coins, the US Mint features an image of an astronaut boot print in the surface of the moon. The textured, concave surface gives the impression that boot print is stamped into the Moon itself. Inscriptions include MERCURY, GEMINI, APOLLO, IN GOD WE TRUST, 2019, and LIBERTY.

Reverse

In the reverse design field of the 2019 Proof American Apollo 11 50^th Anniversary Silver Coin, you will find the image of Neil Armstrong standing near the Eagle lunar lander and the American flag. You can see the silhouette of Buzz Aldrin, whose visor reflects all of these images. The domed surface on this side enhances the sense of the field serving as Aldrins helmet. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ONE DOLLAR, and E PLURIBUS UNUM.

History

Apollo 11 was Americas winning shot in the Space Race against the Soviet Union. Responding to the challenge President John F. Kennedy issued earlier in the 1960s, the Apollo 11 mission successfully sent American astronauts to the Moon and safely returned them home.
