Hoover Dam Silver Coin, Colorized, 2 oz Silver 2026 Proof Ultra Deep Relief

Hoover Dam Silver Coin, Colorized, 2 oz Silver 2026 Proof Ultra Deep Relief commemorates one of the greatest engineering icons of the 20th century. Built in the 1930s on the Colorado River, Hoover Dam connects the states of Nevada and Arizona, and its monumental structure remains a symbol of technological progress and human determination to this day.

Monumental construction in silver

The coin was struck from 2 ounces of .9999 fine silver in Proof quality. The use of Ultra Deep Relief technology has created impressive depth and a multi-layered surface structure. The colorization highlights the waters of the Colorado, the rocky walls of Black Canyon, and the dam itself. The face value is 10 Cook Islands dollars, the diameter is 38.61 mm, and the worldwide mintage is limited to just 500 pieces.

Obverse and reverse of the coin

The obverse features a historical scene from the construction of Hoover Dam. Workers can be seen laboring on the monumental structure, along with elements of infrastructure and the rocky surroundings of the canyon. The composition is completed by a small Cook Islands coat of arms with the denomination and the year 2026.

The reverse depicts Hoover Dam from an aerial perspective, surrounded by the rugged formations of Black Canyon. The intensely turquoise color of the water contrasts with the rocky landscape, while the rendering of roads and infrastructure emphasizes the scale of this engineering achievement.
