2023 3 oz Antique Barbados Silver Vinyl Record Coin l JM Bullion™
The Mint says about this coin:
Edouard Leon Scott, a French inventor, discovered that a vibrating pen visually depicted sounds on a small paper disc. Just a few years later he recorded the first ever voice recording that has survived to the present day. This was known as the Phonautograph. In the 1920’s this evolved to the Gramophone which was the first record player to use vinyl. Less than 30 years later, Peter Carl Goldmark presented the LP, a long-playing vinyl record that could hold up to 21 minutes of music on each side. This would change the music industry forever as now albums were made possible. Commemorate the 75th anniversary of the historic invention with the 2023 3 oz Antique Barbados Silver Vinyl Record Coin available at JM Bullion.

In 1948, Colombia Records started selling Polyvinyl chloride long-playing records, otherwise known as LPs. These records stored more music, were far less brittle, and had a quieter surface than shellac discs. The first record on vinyl was Mendelssohn’s Concerto in E Minor by Nathan Milstein on the violin along with the New York Philharmonic. The vinyl record led the way for cassettes and CDs, making it an integral part of music history.
