Fujairah 10 riyals Apollo XIV Moon Landing Program proof silver coin 1970

This attractive 10 riyals silver coin from Fujairah, issued in 1970, commemorates the Apollo XIV Moon Landing Program—an important mission that reinforced the success of human exploration beyond Earth. Struck in elegant Proof quality, the coin showcases a clean and symbolic design focused on space travel and discovery.

The obverse features a large cratered Moon dominating the lower portion of the composition, with finely engraved surface details. Above, a stylized rocket arcs across the field, leaving multiple curved trails that emphasize motion and trajectory. A prominent five-pointed star marks the rocket’s destination, while a ringed planet floats nearby, adding depth and a broader cosmic context. Small stars are scattered across the mirrored background, and the inscriptions “APOLLO 14” and “1971” frame the scene, reinforcing the mission’s identity.

The reverse displays the coat of arms of Fujairah: a central shield with crossed flags and rifles, surrounded by Arabic inscriptions, along with the denomination “10 Riyals” and the date “1970.” A beaded border completes the design, providing balance and definition.

Apollo 14 symbolized precision, recovery, and continued progress in space exploration. This coin’s refined engraving and meaningful theme make it a compelling addition to any collection of world coins or space memorabilia.
