Cutty Sark 2024 | RWF50 Rwanda | 1oz Fine Silver Coin
The eighth release in the Nautical Ounce series commemorates the 155th anniversary of the Cutty Sark, one of the final and fastest tea clippers ever constructed. Struck by the Bavarian State Mint from 1 oz of .999 fine silver, this coin celebrates a maritime legend designed for the high-stakes race to bring the season’s first tea harvest to London.
Built in 1869, the Cutty Sark was a marvel of naval architecture, renowned for its sleek lines and massive sail area. Following its days in the competitive tea trade, the ship transitioned to the Australian wool trade before being preserved as a permanent museum ship in Greenwich, London. Today, it remains a rare icon of maritime history, allowing visitors to appreciate the scale and engineering beauty of the clipper era.
