Apollo 11 The Eagle Has Landed 40th Anniversary Commemorative Token

This item is a circular, copper-toned commemorative token encased within a clear, round plastic protective capsule. The token's obverse side is visible, featuring an engraved, somewhat abstract depiction of the Apollo 11 lunar module 'Eagle' with its landing legs extended, seemingly descending onto the lunar surface. Above the module, towards the top center of the token, there is a small, irregular-shaped dark inclusion or element embedded into the surface, which could be a piece of meteorite or another commemorative material, though its exact nature is uncertain from the image. The inscription around the periphery of the token reads: "40TH ANNIVERSARY THE EAGLE HAS LANDED 1969-2009", indicating it commemorates the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. The metallic surface of the token displays a warm, rich copper or bronze hue with a matte or satin finish, suggesting it is not highly polished. There are no significant visible condition issues such as scratches or dents on the token itself, likely due to its protective casing. The clear plastic capsule appears to be in good condition, allowing for a clear view of the token. The craftsmanship appears to be of standard quality for commemorative tokens, with clear engraving and a well-preserved surface. The design is indicative of a mid-to-late 20th-century celebratory or commemorative piece, likely produced in 2009.
