Comment

This is the third & final second coin in the three coin series The Northern Sky. Gracing the Northern Skies year round, Cassiopia has fascinated astronomers and storytellers for ages.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique domed design, which gives the impression of a 3D effect when viewed from different angles. This design was achieved through a special minting process that involved striking the coin multiple times to create a rounded, dome-shaped surface. This feature adds an extra layer of beauty and collectibility to the coin, making it a sought-after item among coin enthusiasts.
