    Description

    This uncirculated collectible commemorative coin features the First Men on the Moon.  It was issued by the Republic of the Marshall Islands on July 20, 1989, precisely twenty years after the historic moon landing. This cupro-nickel coin is legal tender of the Republic of the Marshall Islands and salutes the most triumphant achievement in the history of American space exploration. The obverse of the coin captures the moment when an Apollo 11 astronaut stepped off the Eagle landing craft and is modeled after a photograph taken by Neil Armstrong, already on the surface of the moon.   The reverse of the coin bears the official seal of the Republic of the Marshall Islands.
