Players of the new mobile video game EIGHTH ERA™ have an opportunity to acquire NGC-certified MS70 examples of the 2025 American Silver Eagle bullion coins with the new eagle-in-flight privy mark via gameplay and in-game tournaments beginning April 7, 2025.
Many of EIGHTH ERA’s major characters including the ASE-inspired character Golden Griffin, levels of play, and rewards are inspired by historical coins. Created by gaming publisher and developer Nice Gang® (www.NiceGang.com), the innovative game is free to play and available to download on iOS and Android devices.
Starting April 7, reach level 7 to unlock the exclusive chance to purchase NGC-certified MS70 ASEs – now featuring the bold new eagle-in-flight privy mark while supplies last.
For gamers and coin collectors seeking a competitive experience, ASEs with the new eagle-in-flight privy mark can also be won by competing in the tournament-style competition which can be unlocked once a player reaches level 6.
Held over a two-week period, tournament winners who achieve first place in the level 41-60 bracket will receive an EIGHTH ERA gold gilted hero coin, in addition to an ASE with eagle-in-flight privy mark. In collaboration with the United States Mint (www.USMint.gov), the coins available to EIGHTH ERA players will be among the first 50,000 released.
“EIGHTH ERA has truly struck a chord with collectors and gamers alike. Coin collectors who’ve never played a video game are now some of our top players. Thanks to their continued support, we are excited to offer our loyal fanbase and new players these beautiful collectible silver eagles for free through tournaments and at a reduced price, which includes Numismatic Guaranty Company (www.NGCcoin.com) certification and shipping costs,” said Jason Wasserman, Nice Gang Co-Founder.
“Each NGC-encapsulated coin in this promotion will have a special EIGHTH ERA insert label with, appropriately, a depiction of the game’s eagle character, the Golden Griffin. The words ‘FIRST EAGLE PRIVY RELEASE’ and ‘ONE OF FIRST 50,000 RELEASED’ are also on the label,” announced Wasserman.
“We experienced such a high demand for our first Silver Eagle promotion, that we couldn’t wait to share this special coin with our players. The United States Mint American Silver Eagle with the eagle-in-flight privy mark is a groundbreaking collectible,” stated Mark Salzberg, Co-Founder of Nice Gang, Certified Collectibles Group (CCG) and NGC.
“EIGHTH ERA was created to help attract a new generation to coin collecting as well as provide informative, enjoyable entertainment to current collectors. Since its recent launch, the game has garnered more than 150,000 downloads since October,” said Salzberg.
Set 10,000 years in the future, EIGHTH ERA takes players on an epic role-playing adventure through perilous past worlds to collect forgotten pieces of history and save the future from an evil AI. It provides endless entertainment for both the hardcore and casual players.
Players have the chance to win numismatic rewards, such as exclusive certified coins and special medallions that depict some of the game’s more than 50 playable characters. New hero medallions are released monthly for players to win.
