There are probably many children that had the dream of becoming a fighter pilot growing up.
Many of those same children and even adults watched the original “Top Gun” movie and dreamed some more. Soon, Tom Cruise and his iconic role as a Ace Fighter Pilot will once again put up a tribute for these real life heroes.
CIT also honors these role models with a new series and a stunning 3 oz, 50 mm silver proof limited to only 499 pieces! One look at this and you will ask yourself, “Am i watching the coin or is the pilot behind his visor watching me?”
This is the result when the possibilities of enhanced smartminting© technology are applied. Ultra high relief, partly polished honeycomb pattern and extremely detailed elements reaching to and even over the edge of the coin generate an unbelievably realistic picture. “Only the brave are free” is the matching statement on the obverse.
So get this coin and be your own hero!
