2022 2/3oz Austria The Uncharted Universe Series- Black Hole .925 Silver Proof Coin is the second release of the “Uncharted Universe” series, dedicated to a total of three physical-astronomical phenomena, each shaped in a unique form the likes of which have never previously been produced, “The Uncharted Universe” explores through coins the deepest depths of the universe and offers a fascinating glimpse of three physical-astronomical phenomena. 

The black hole vortex phenomenon is illustrated on the coin’s reverse in the shape a funnel decorated with a colour-printed spiral.

On the coin’s obverse, a cone rises from the flat silver surface, representing the curvature of space-time. ‘Cygnus X-1’, the name of the first black hole to be named as such, is written to the right under ‘15 M☉’, the solar mass of this black hole. In German, ‘Event horizon’ marks the boundary between the observable and the unobservable in space-time, while ‘Singularity’ points to the location of maximum space-time curvature.
