The bicycle offered one of the first major advancements away from horse-and-buggy transportation in the world. Although the wheel had existed for thousands of years already, it wasn’t until 200 years ago that the first bicycle was invented, and would be another 100 years before they were popular among all classes of society. Right now, the 2017 5 oz Proof Silver Cook Islands Mother of Pearl Bicycle Coin is available to purchase online at Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Ships to you in a wooden circular box with Certificate of Authenticity.
  • Celebrates the 200th anniversary of the bicycle!
  • First of two coins released for the occasion!
  • Mintage limited to 750 coins only!
  • Consists of Five Troy ounces of .999 fine silver.
  • Bears a face value of $25 (CID) backed by the Cook Islands.
  • Obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II.
  • Reverse includes imagery of the bicycle, past and present.

With your purchase of a 2017 5 oz Proof Silver Cook Islands Mother of Pearl Bicycle Coin you’ll receive the coin inside of a circular, wooden box with a 200th anniversary theme for the bicycle that includes wheel spokes. There is an individual Certificate of Authenticity available with each coin.

2017 marks the 200th anniversary of the bicycle. To date, there have been more than 1 billion bicycles produced in the last two centuries, which is more than double the number of automobiles that have been produced around the world. Bicycles were developed by a German man named Baron Karl von Drais, and was introduced to the public in Mannheim in the summer of 1817, and one year later in Paris.

On the reverse of the 2017 5 oz Proof Silver Cook Islands Mother of Pearl Bicycle Coin you’ll find the split image of a historical bicycle from its early days on the left, with a modern biker riding competitively on the right. There is a Mother of Pearl overlay on both sides of the split bicycle design, with yellow on the left and green on the right.

The obverse of the Mother of Pearl Bicycle Coin includes the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley, this fourth-generation depiction of the Queen is the current effigy in use on British, Australian, and other commonwealth nations’ coins.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
