The James Webb Space Telescope is an orbital telescope first conceived in 1996 and finally launched for testing and operation in 2021. Its mission is to study previously little-understood phenomena like the formation and evolution of planets, stars and galaxies, to glimpse light from the early formation of the universe after the Big Bang, and study the origins of life as a part of planetary systems. That far-reaching mission began in earnest in 2022, building on the already-extraordinary images captured by the previous Hubble Space Telescope, and it has already begun to reshape our understanding of astronomy, making it an excellent subject for the ambitious bullion range of Coins Today Korea.
The Space Telescope Silver Stacker is available in an unlimited mintage, a cost-effective stackable bullion round with antique finishing that will fascinate fans of astronomy and compel the attention of investors. It comes in a secure plastic capsule, with each shipment tracked by the team at JM Bullion and fully insured against any possible mishap in transit.
The round’s obverse side features high-relief sculpting and selective gilding, showing the eighteen-segment honeycomb structure of the telescope in compelling detail with a small optics subsystem nub at the array’s center.
Apart from accurately reproducing the details of the telescope, the sculpture of the subsystems nub has a practical purpose for stackable rounds that’s revealed on the concave reverse side. Here, a small recess on the back of each round allows further rounds to interlock with it for seamless stacking and storage.

“This is very beautiful! I was excited to get it in the mail. The only negative about this piece is, while I am a collector and intend to hold this, there is nothing on the bullion that indicates its weight or metal/purity. Besides the design, it is blank. Even though it passed some of the other tests you can do, without the markings, I am still side-eyeing it. I saw that it had no markings on the pictures, but I just assumed it would be on the edges. But, if you don't care about that, then I would definitely recommend this.”
