This remarkable 10 riyals silver coin issued by Fujairah in 1970 commemorates the historic Apollo 12 Moon landing, celebrating one of humanity’s greatest achievements in space exploration. Struck in high-quality Proof finish and certified PR69 by PCGS, the coin captures the spirit of technological progress and international fascination with lunar missions.

The reverse features a bold national emblem: a shield with crossed flags and rifles, inscriptions in Arabic, the denomination “10 Riyals,” and the date “1970,” all surrounded by a beaded border. The obverse is richly detailed with space-themed imagery: a lunar surface filled with craters, stars scattered across the field, and multiple mission insignia including Apollo 11 and Apollo 12 patches. A striking eagle landing motif appears within a circular inset, while another medallion depicts the astronaut’s footprint on the Moon. To the right, three astronaut portraits—Charles Conrad, Richard Gordon, and Alan Bean—are aligned vertically, emphasizing the human element of the mission. The inscription “APOLLO XII” anchors the composition.

This coin is not only a numismatic piece but a tribute to scientific triumph and exploration. Its intricate design, historical significance, and superb preservation make it highly desirable for collectors of space-themed and commemorative world coins.
