2013 Canada 50-cent Sea Creatures - Starfish 1/25oz. Pure Gold (No Tax)

The Starfish: Star of the Pacific Coast

This expertly crafted pure gold coin is a stunning and unique tribute to one of British Columbia's most intriguing and beautiful marine residents-the Leather Star. The engraved design on the coin's reverse brilliantly conveys the textural qualities of the Leather Star's mottled skin, while intricate detailing further portrays one of the brilliant adaptations of such a star fish-the tube feet that are visible from beneath the curved arms. Some of these tube feet, located near the tip of the arm, are capable of detecting prey.
