Commemorative coin celebrating Juan Manuel Fangio's fourth Formula 1 Drivers' Championship and Ferrari's triumph in the 1956 season. Following Mercedes-Benz's withdrawal from Formula 1 at the end of 1955, Fangio joined Scuderia Ferrari, driving the Lancia-Ferrari D50. Throughout the season, Fangio secured victories in Argentina, Great Britain, and Germany, demonstrating his exceptional driving skills and Ferrari's engineering excellence. A memorable moment took place at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza, where his teammate Peter Collins selflessly handed over his car to Fangio after his own suffered a mechanical failure, allowing him to win the championship.
Expertly crafted from titanium, this exclusive edition pays tribute to Ferrari's extraordinary achievements during a season that cemented its position as a dominant force in Formula 1.
