Glowing Topaz and Ankle Grinder
Those two phrases are the best way to describe this coin. At least if you play a bit with a flashlight. The coin has a topaz marble in the center inside a stainless steel mount. Around the marble is the 1 oz antiqued silver coin. On this silver coin are multiple coi fish, which are symbols of good luck in many countries.But aside from the obvious there's something strange with this coin; Both sides of the coin are ground down. They claim it's to simulate the look of an ancient artefact. Not sure whether that was a good idea, but at least you can get a coin to pass as Uncirculated with major scratches. But it looks beautiful. Especially if you light the topaz up.
