The bimetallic high relief coin is entitled Cosmic Encounters and was struck from 340 g copper and 15 g silver. The motive of the partially colored coin depicts an astronaut in a spacesuit looking through a window from a space station into the vastness of the cosmos. Also included in the design are the inscriptions “COSMIC ENCOUNTERS” and “15 g 999 AG”. The special feature of this issue is that the silver part of the coin on the obverse has been embedded in the copper part and is characterized by a moving aspect. By rotating the copper base, the innovative design of the coin offers the possibility of varying the view of space through the window. The reverse has been struck entirely from copper and shows an astronaut standing on a planet and looking at other planets, which are all depicted in color. The design of the reverse is completed by the coat of arms of Samoa and details of the year of issue and denomination. The Cosmic Encounters bimetallic antique finish coin is delivered in the original box including a numbered certificate of authenticity.
