A fun new series and a fun new shape: a HEXAGON.
It sparkles on a sunny winter day and shimmers on a cold moonlit night-wherever a snow crystal lands, its delicate form is as ethereal as it is enchanting, and the ice crystal that landed on this coin's reverse is no exception. Snow crystals, such as the stellar dendrite featured here, are beautifully varied and unique, and most of them feature six points or sides, which inspired our first hexagon coin. Its outline emphasizes the elaborate form of the snow crystal engraved on your coin's reverse, which is dotted with a sparkling clear crystal. Looking closely at the magnified view, you'll notice each of those fern-like branches are slightly different, which reflects the natural variations of shape that make these works of art endlessly fascinating-in nature, and on your Snowflake coin.
Introducing our first hexagon coin, which features a sparkling snow crystal.
