Story

Mother-of-Pearl Clouds

Mother-of-Pearl Clouds, also known as nacreous clouds, are an extraordinary atmospheric phenomenon that appear in the sky in the polar regions during the winter. They are renowned for their vibrant, iridescent colours that resemble the sheen of mother-of-pearl, from which they get their name. Formed at high altitudes, these clouds are created when sunlight interacts with the tiny ice crystals they are made of, making them a rare and mesmerising spectacle for those lucky enough to witness them. 

Superbly coloured design

The coin’s coloured reverse portrays two sea lions gazing over glaciers and icebergs in their natural environment. The background features the breathtaking Mother-of-Pearl Clouds. The inscription ‘MOTHER-OF-PEARL’ and ‘CLOUDS’ appears within the design.
