DESCRIPTION
Named for the vivid red stripes near their ears, red-eared sliders are famously adept at sliding off rocks and logs into the water.
The 2-ounce coin features meticulously detailed red stripes on the turtle’s head and intricate patterns on its shell, enhanced by digital printing. Using special techniques and finish to achieve remarkable realism, the coin is set against a backdrop crafted from epoxy that mimics its natural habitat of stones, water lilies, and flowing water. The scene depicts the turtle embarking on its Lifelong Journey slowly but resolutely.
Embodying longevity and calm passage, the Red-eared Turtle coin epitomizes the essence of endurance and the serene flow of time.
