Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique gilding process, known as rhodium-platinum gilding, which gives the coin a distinctive shimmer and durability. This process involves depositing a thin layer of rhodium and platinum onto the gold surface, creating a reflective and scratch-resistant finish. This technique is not commonly used in coin production, making this coin a truly special and collectible item.
