NumisCollect and PopCoins are proud to present the official Rio2025 commemorative coin — created for the Rio2025 V Convención Internacional de Historiadores y Numismáticos. It will official launch at the event. Issued as 5 Cedis legal tender by Ghana, this 1 oz .999 fine silver proof coin is limited to only 200 pieces in classic minting and 50 featuring a vivid color logo. With a striking design that captures Rio’s most iconic landmarks, it is the first official numismatic tribute to this prestigious international event.
As a Gold Sponsor, we are honored to support this historic convention, held from September 2–6, 2025 at the JW Marriott in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro. Bringing together experts, historians, mints, auction houses, and collectors from over 30 countries, the event celebrates global numismatic heritage through research, exhibitions, and cultural exchange. A perfect collector’s piece for all who attend — and for those who appreciate history in precious metal form.
Coin description
The obverse depicts Corcovado Mountain with the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue and a winding train ascending its slopes. The top bears the inscriptions “FIVE CEDIS” and “CORCOVADO,” with “1 oz / 999 / fine / silver” elegantly arranged on the right. At the bottom the standard coat of arms of Ghana is inserted.
The reverse features the official Rio2025 convention logo in either classic silver or vibrant color. The year 2025 on this side represents the year of issue of the coin as well.
Background information
The Rio2025 convention is set to be a landmark gathering of the global numismatic and historical community. Taking place in the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro — a city known for its natural beauty and cultural richness — this fifth edition of the International Convention of Historians and Numismatists will feature academic sessions, exhibitions, a commercial fair, and guided cultural tours. Participants will explore deep research on coins, medals, paper money, and related subjects, with a special emphasis on Ibero-American and global contexts. Notable exhibits include rare Brazilian 960 réis coins and a curated display of military decorations. Alongside the conference, a commemorative medal and this exclusive silver coin are being released to mark the occasion. With its limited mintage and strong symbolic design, the Rio2025 coin stands as a lasting tribute to a once-in-a-generation numismatic event — blending scholarship, collecting, and international collaboration in one of the world’s most iconic cities.
