2020 Mongolia Majestic Eagle Ultra High Relief Proof Coins

Coin Invest Trust (CIT) broke new ground at the Berlin 2020 World Money Fair with its innovating Mongolia Majestic Eagle Collection. Struck at the Mayer Mint in Germany, the coins are struck in ultra-high relief on both faces. Four versions of the coin were released, including 1 oz. and 1/10 oz. gold, 1 oz silver, and 50 g copper versions. All the pieces are proofs and bear designs that celebrate the remarkable title creature. Just 199 1 oz. Gold Proofs were struck. They are joined by 999 1/10 oz. Gold Proofs, 2,500 Silver Proofs, and 5,000 Copper Proofs.

A Technology Like None Other

CIT recently developed smartminting technology that set the company apart from other world mints. The technology created impressive appearances through exceptionally high relief, which also provided the opportunity for increasing the level of detail in each coin. With the Majestic Eagle Proofs, the company is taking smartminting to a new level with smartminting Reloaded.

This new technology more than doubles the relief that is possible with standard smartminting technology and enables BOTH faces of the coin to be struck in ultra-high relief.

2020 Mongolia Majestic Eagle Designs

The obverse features a striking image of the clause of an eagle as they clutch onto an arrow. The claws appear lifelike as they rise high from the rest of the surface. Above, is an area that bears Bank of Mongolia's Coat of Arms, as well as an inscription detailing the coin's face value. The date, "2020," is among several additional inscriptions in this section.

The stunning reverse design beautifully illustrates the contrasts made possible with the new technology. A bit more than half of this face consists of a low relief design of an eagle looking directly into the eyes of the holder. While striking in its own right, it pales in comparison to the other eagle design, which shows an angled view of the bird looking at the holder. The second design was struck in ultra-high relief, providing the holder with a clear illustration of the astounding improvement made possible by smartminting Reloaded.
