The Grand Canyon is a massive geological formation located in northern Arizona, United States. It is one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the world, with its colourful rock formations and sheer size drawing millions of visitors each year.
The canyon is over 277 miles (446 kilometres) long, up to 18 miles (29 kilometres) wide, and reaches a depth of over a mile (1.6 kilometres). It was carved over millions of years by the Colorado River, which flows through the canyon's base. The exposed layers of rock in the canyon walls tell a geological story spanning over 2 billion years, and the canyon is home to a diverse range of plant and animal species.
The Grand Canyon is a popular destination for hiking, camping, and rafting, with several trails and campsites located throughout the park. Featured on the coin is Horseshoe Bend, a horseshoe-shaped meander of the Colorado River located near the town of Page, Arizona.
This 24 carat gold-plated coin is presented in exquisite full colour detail with quality craftsmanship on an oversize 50mm coin that captures the essence of the location.
The legal tender coin features the effigy of King Charles III on the obverse making it a true collectors item and a must-have for anyone who loves the United States and its rich cultural heritage.
