Copper Medal 2026 – Honey Bee 1 AVDP oz

The copper medal is dedicated to the honeybee, one of nature’s most amazing creatures. Bees play a key role in pollinating plants and maintaining natural ecosystems, and their industriousness and complex organization have served as a symbol of harmony and unity for centuries.

The issue is crafted from pure copper, a metal considered one of the most important materials for modern industry. Growing demand for copper supports interest in the metal’s long-term price potential, so copper issues are gradually attracting the attention of not only numismatic enthusiasts but also those considering copper as an investment.

The weight of the medal is 1 AVDP oz (28.35 g). Unlike the troy ounce, which is used for precious metals, the Avoirdupois ounce is a standard ounce used primarily for common goods and industrial metals.

The obverse depicts a highly detailed bee with widely spread wings in the center of the medal. Behind it are stylized honeycombs with golden drops of honey, creating a three-dimensional and expressive background. The combination of the bee and honeycomb emphasizes the connection with nature, hard work, and harmony. The reverse depicts a bee in the center within a hexagonal cell surrounded by a honeycomb pattern. At the bottom of the medal is an inscription indicating the weight and purity of the metal.
