An amazing representative of fauna, one that invokes the transient nature and fragility of life in particular, the Death's-Head moth carries a skull pattern on its back and is at the same time a delicate creation of nature. The geometric pattern of the coin's field, made in the latest black-proof technique, makes the three-dimensional moth look remarkably gossamer. This coin will be a great highlight in any collection because of its special character and due to the first application of lapping technology on a coin, which made it possible to create mirrored fragments on the moth's wings.
