Interesting fact
The Snowy Owl coin is a unique and interesting collector's item, as it features a design that changes depending on the angle of the light. The coin's reverse side features a stunning Snowy Owl perched on a branch, with intricate details that showcase the owl's feathers and the branch's texture. However, when the light hits the coin at a certain angle, the owl's feathers appear to change color, shifting from a light gray to a darker, more mottled pattern. This innovative design feature is known as "color-shifting technology" and adds an extra layer of depth and interest to the coin.
