Step back into the golden age of magic with Spectres' Houdini's Water Torture Cell coin. This 1 oz .999 pure silver coin pays homage to Harry Houdini, the illustrious Hungarian-American illusionist and stunt performer. Celebrating the centennial legacy of the Water Torture Cell, invented in 1912, this coin captures the essence of one of the most daring feats in escapology.

  • Rarity and Craftsmanship: A limited edition of just 1000 coins worldwide, each piece intricately shaped and proofed with color, the coin features a vintage illustration of Houdini in his self-named "Upside Down" escape act. While the world knew it as "The Water Torture Cell," Houdini's preferred term, "USD," hinted at his American identity and innovative spirit.
  • Captivating Design: The reverse side showcases the vintage portrayal of Houdini's suspenseful escape, while the obverse complements with a monster-like character sealing Houdini's fate, encased in the Water Torture Cell.
  • Collectible and Currency:  As legal tender with a face value of 1000 Francs CFA, this coin is not just a tribute to Houdini’s iconic 1912 invention but also a valuable piece for collectors and enthusiasts of American history.
  • Unique Presentation: A seamless chain link symbol frames the border of the coin, symbolizing the inescapable magic and Houdini's boundless legacy.
  • Collector's Piece: The coin arrives in a custom box echoing the theme of escapology, complete with a Certificate of Authenticity.
