Hot air balloons were invented by the Montgolfier brothers in 1783. They built a balloon made of silk and lined with paper and launched it with nobody aboard in front of a crowd in Annonay, France. The balloon went to between 5,200 and 6,600 feet and stayed afloat for around 10 minutes. The innovative creation is immortalized thanks to the 2023 2 oz Antique Burundi Silver Hot Air Balloon Shaped Coin, now available at JM Bullion.
