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 thin layer of gold to be applied to the copper surface, creating a striking contrast between the gold and copper colors. This process adds an extra layer of detail and depth to the coin's design, making it a truly distinctive piece.
