The Coin Company is proud to present 2022 Planets Of The Solar System 5oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin, produced by the Perth Mint.

With the effect of gravity, matter spinning around the core began clumping together. The largest of these masses became the Solar System's nine planets. Rocky versions, including the Earth, formed closest to the sun. Further away from the sun, gas and ice merged into four 'gas giants' - huge planets composed primarily of hydrogen and helium.

The coin features a stylised impression of the Solar System. Portrayed in colour, the nine planets are aligned clockwise from the smallest to the largest in size: Pluto, Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter.

Other coloured elements include a comet and a depiction of the Sun as it might be seen from the rocky terrain of an orbiting asteroid. Both the asteroid and cosmic clouds in the background are finished with an antiqued surface treatment.

2022 Planets Of The Solar System 5oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin has a limited mintage of 388 coins.
