In 2025, the awe-inspiring Matterhorn—the crown of the Swiss Alps—takes center stage in this stunning 1 oz Silver “First Ascent” Proof Coin, commemorating the legendary 1865 expedition led by Edward Whymper, the first successful ascent of the iconic peak. Struck in .9999 fine silver and sculpted with Smartminting® ultra high-relief technology, this coin pays tribute to human courage, perseverance, and the eternal pull of adventure.
The reverse design captures the Matterhorn in breathtaking realism, rising sharply from the coin’s surface with nearly 3.5 millimeters of sculpted depth. The intricate detailing evokes the fierce winds, jagged cliffs, and icy slopes that made the climb one of the most daring achievements of the 19th century. It’s a visual masterpiece that almost lets you feel the mountain’s cold air and hear the echo of the climbers’ final ascent.
On the obverse, the legendary mountaineer Edward Whymper and his team stand at the mountain’s base—determined, resolute, and moments away from changing history. Inscriptions include the nation of issue, year, and denomination, marking it as an officially backed Swiss sovereign coin.
Each coin is securely housed in a framed presentation box with a Certificate of Authenticity, offering both protection and display-worthy presentation.
Limited to a symbolic 1,865 pieces worldwide, this release honors not only the mountain’s grandeur but also the indomitable spirit of those who dared to conquer it.
