This design is particularly notable because it was created using a special technique that involves applying a thin layer of 24-karat gold to the coin's surface, giving it a distinctive shimmer and shine. This feature not only adds to the coin's aesthetic appeal but also serves as a symbol of the natural beauty and wonder of the Northern Lights, which are a popular tourist attraction in Denmark and other parts of the Nordic region.
