The crew of the Apollo 11 mission consisted of three men with distinct roles. Michael Collins was the pilot of the command module unit and was the only one of the three not to descend from space orbit to the lunar surface. As the Apollo 11 modules approached the Moon’s orbit, Commander Neil Armstrong and lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin transferred to the Eagle lander and eventually descended to the surface of the Moon.

All three of the astronauts from Apollo 11 feature on the obverse of 1 oz Apollo 11 The Crew Silver Rounds. The design element offers left-profile portraits of the heads of Collins, Armstrong, and Aldrin in flight suits. In the foreground, the lunar surface has the imprint of an astronaut footprint with an inscription marking the 50^th anniversary of the Moon landing. Each of the men’s names is inscribed along the edge of the design field.

The popular mission patch worn by the members of Apollo 11 is replicated on 1 oz The Crew Silver Rounds. This design element features a bald eagle as it lands on the surface of the Moon with an olive branch in its talons. In the cold, distant background of space is a view of planet Earth.
