Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique gold-plating technique, known as "pad printing," which allows for a high level of detail and precision in the design. This technique involves applying a thin layer of gold to specific areas of the coin's surface using a silicone pad, resulting in a striking contrast between the gold and silver elements of the design. This process adds an extra layer of beauty and sophistication to the coin, making it a truly special piece for collectors.
