The unique gold detailed material clam case is a nice touch for this special coin. The detailing is impeccable with a very proportional horse elevated on the surface. Overall very happy with this purchase. The only concerns I have with this coin are that it is 18K (making it more of a jewellery piece opposed to a true gold coin), also the coin is a bit small for the presentation box- accentuating how small the coin is. I would suggest the mint offering this type of coin in a smaller case.Was this a gift?:Yes Bottom LineYes, I would recommend this to a friendWas this review helpful?

Really stunning design and surface finish. Mintage is low; premium is reasonable, which both keep the value steady up even when gold price drops.
