I chose this coin to demonstrate the amazing detail that can be stamped into stainless steel. This coin is a mere 12mm in diameter, but the Brazilian Coat of Arms was precisely rendered on the obverse by high-speed presses under remarkable pressures.

Enjoy.

The intricate design on the coin is so clearly visible. Good capture and presentation, Don.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Don't think I've ever seen a Stainless Steel Coin.
Your Presentation is Excellent Don.

This is a good presentation of this coin. I have never thought of the history of a coin before this series of yours, but can look at them in a different light now!
