While Mandelas inauguration may have been the catalyst for the creation of
Mandela gold coins and their subsequent popularity, certain other historical events have led to the production of commemorative coins. Such events include Mandela being awarded the Nobel peace prize - along with F.W. De Klerk - in 1993 and Mandelas 90th birthday in 2008.
Silver and gold Mandela coins are available separately or in themed sets. Individual Mandela coins include the
Mandela Robben Island half-ounce medallion, the one-ounce Mandela / De Klerk Protea 2007, the
one-ounce Mandela Nobel Silver medallion and
two-ounce Mandela 90th Birthday medallion.
Serious investors and numismatists can purchase sets comprising a number of relevant coins. Sets usually include two or three items from the history of Mandela coins. These items are often struck in the same year and celebrate the same achievement. Popular sets include the
Prestige Nobel set, the
Mandela 90th Birthday Silver twin set and the
Mandela 90th Birthday Platinum twin set.
The Scoin Shops selection of Nelson Mandela related products also includes the
Mandela 46664 silver bracelet and
Mandela 90th birthday one-kilogram gold bar. Purchase these items to add variety to your commemorative collection of
Mandela related memorabilia.
