Each butterfly species showcases unique patterns and magnificent colours, embodying the essence of transformation and beauty that cultures worldwide have long admired.

Technical information

This coin has been struck on an extra-deep blank to showcase its superbly detailed design in high relief. The coin has been individually ‘antiqued’ to give it a unique finish conveying the surface abrasions of an ancient artefact. As a result of this treatment, the appearance of each coin in the mintage may vary.

Translucent case

Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin is housed in a translucent case which comes in a black wooden presentation box.
