Celebrate one of mountaineering’s most legendary feats with the 2025 Matterhorn Commemorative Silver Coin. Issued by Switzerland and struck in 1 oz of .9999 fine silver, this stunning proof-quality coin pays tribute to the first ascent of the Matterhorn in 1865 — a historic moment of triumph and tragedy.

With its iconic pyramid-shaped peak, the Matterhorn stands as a symbol of alpine majesty. This coin captures its dramatic beauty in breathtaking ultra-high relief, showcasing the mountain’s rugged contours and commanding presence in extraordinary detail. The design honours Edward Whymper and his team, whose pioneering ascent ended in both glory and sorrow, as four climbers tragically lost their lives on the descent.

Issued with a face value of 5 Swiss Francs and limited to just 1,865 pieces — a poignant nod to the year of the first ascent — this collectible is a meaningful tribute for history buffs, climbers, and numismatists alike. A landmark in silver, this coin is a powerful reminder of human ambition and the awe-inspiring force of nature.
