Comment
The commemorative coin is dedicated to the year of the Cat (Rabbit, Hare) according to the calendar of the Chinese origin based on the twelve-year cycle of the Jupiter.Interesting fact
The Year of the Cat coin was designed by Ukrainian artist Oksana Mas, and it features an adorable image of a cat sitting on a windowsill, looking out at the sky. The coin's design is particularly unique because it incorporates a special technique called "colored enamel," which gives the cat's fur a vibrant, shimmering effect. This technique involves applying a thin layer of colored enamel to the coin's surface, which is then baked in a high-temperature oven to create a glossy, smooth finish. The result is a coin that really stands out and catches the eye!
