  Liberia 2005 “Titanic” $10 Silver Proof with Commemorative Postcards
Contains real coal raised from the wreckage of the Titanic!
The 1912 maiden voyage of the Titanic, the largest and most opulent ship of its time, resulted in one of the worst peacetime nautical disasters in history. About 1,500 lives were lost when the vessel hit an iceberg in the North Atlantic. The wreck was discovered in 1985 and subsequently explored. This unique oval shaped proof features an impressive engraving of the gigantic ocean liner. An actual piece of coal from the Titanic is shown in the lower section of the ship where it was stored on the night of the unthinkable tragedy. This official legal tender coin of Liberia contains 25 grams of .925 silver and has
a worldwide mintage of just 5,000. A beautiful wood
display case and 16-piece commemorative postcard
collection are included.
