2022 Niue 1 oz Silver Icons of Inspiration: Wright Brothers

The fifth release in this popular series highlights the famous Wright brothers: Orville and Wilbur Wright. These two are considered pioneers in American aviation because they invented, built, and flew the world's first successful motor-operated airplane in 1903. Additionally, the Wright brothers also invented aircraft controls that made fixed wing powered flight possible. Artwork by famed coin designer Joel Iskowitz pays an elegant tribute to these innovative first-in-flight brothers.
