A masterpiece of maritime art, celebrating Charles Darwin and a journey of profound significance to the world of science and beyond, we are delighted to present the Charles Darwin & the Voyage of HMS Beagle 2025 $1 1oz Silver Proof!

Struck from 99.9% silver, this legal tender coin has been issued to coincide with the 190^th anniversary of Darwin’s visit to the Galapagos Islands aboard HMS Beagle in September of 1835. A five-year odyssey, during which the ship circumnavigated the globe, the voyage of HMS Beagle played a fundamental role in the formulation of Darwin’s theory of evolution by means of natural selection. As detailed in his seminal work, On the Origin of Species, Darwin’s theory represented a pivotal moment in the course of modern history, having an impact far beyond the realms of science.

A fine tribute to this landmark moment, the Charles Darwin & the Voyage of HMS Beagle 2025 $1 1oz Silver Proof spans a crown-sized 38.60mm. The imposing flan forms the consummate canvas for the detailed, historically accurate depiction of HMS Beagle in full sail, with Darwin standing on the prow. As exclusive as it is eye-catching, the limited edition has set at a mere 650 coins!

With this coin a natural selection for any discerning collector, and that meagre mintage set to sail to a speedy sell-out, we must recommend immediate action.
