The incused strike on the mighty 5oz coin means that a detailed impression of the bird is pressed deep into the surface of the coin , in contrast to the more traditional raised relief in which the design extends above the table .
Seen flying over a gorge with a snake in its talons , the iconic cackling bird gleams with a radiant layer of meticulously applied 24-carat gold , a treatment which also adorns the coin ’ s outer ring on the 2oz size of this iconic release .
