What makes these new UAE commemorative gold and silver coins special
Exclusive availability across Dubai Gold District and official online platform
DUBAI – Emirates Minting Factory, in collaboration with Dubai Gold District, has introduced a limited-edition gold and silver commemorative coin collection inspired by the “Proud of UAE” campaign.
The release brings together precious metals craftsmanship and national symbolism in a form designed for collectors and investors alike. Each coin is struck in investment-grade gold and silver, combining intrinsic bullion value with commemorative significance.
The collection is available exclusively through Dubai Gold District and Emirates Minting Factory channels, reinforcing its restricted availability.
New commemorative coins
Beyond its collectible appeal, the initiative is also linked to a wider social objective, with proceeds directed towards community-focused programmes in Dubai through Ferjan Dubai.
It carries a defined social purpose, with proceeds from the coin sales allocated to Ferjan Dubai, a social enterprise focused on strengthening neighbourhood wellbeing and community life across the emirate. This integration of precious metal collecting with social contribution adds a distinct dimension to the release, aligning investment products with civic impact.
Essa Al Falasi, Chairman of Emirates Minting Factory, described the coins as a symbol of gratitude and solidarity, reflecting the UAE’s unity, leadership and resilience during challenging times. He noted that the collection was created as a tribute to a nation that continues to support its people and partners, with each piece designed to extend its value beyond material worth into meaningful community benefit.
Alia Al Shamlan, Managing Director of Ferjan Dubai, said the collaboration reflects the UAE’s culture of social responsibility and reinforces the importance of partnerships between public and private entities. She added that such initiatives contribute to improving quality of life for citizens while supporting sustainable community development projects across Dubai’s residential areas.
Heritage design
Each coin in the collection has been crafted with precision and attention to detail, drawing inspiration from the UAE’s national identity and cultural heritage. The design incorporates subtle symbolic elements that reflect unity, resilience and pride, aligning with the broader themes of the “Proud of UAE” campaign.
Manufactured using investment-grade one ounce gold and silver, the coins are positioned within the premium bullion category, offering both aesthetic and material value. Emirates Minting Factory has focused on high-quality minting standards to ensure consistency in finish and purity across the limited series. The design approach blends traditional motifs with contemporary minting techniques, creating a product that appeals to collectors seeking both heritage significance and long-term value retention.
The restricted production volume enhances rarity, a key factor for collectors and investors in the precious metals market. Collaboration with Dubai Gold District ensures secure distribution within one of the region’s leading destinations for gold and jewellery trade.
Proud of UAE
Rashid Al Harmoodi, Senior Commercial Director at Ithra Dubai, said the initiative reflects appreciation for the UAE’s collective strength and unity, highlighting the partnership as a gesture that supports both national identity and community engagement. He noted that Dubai Gold District’s role reinforces its position as a hub for high-value collectibles and investment-grade metals.
