Iridescent sky
Struck from 1oz of 99.99 % pure silver, this unique coloured coin pays tribute to the rare, mesmerising optical polar phenomenon known as ' Nacreous Clouds ' or ' Mother-of-Pearl Clouds '.
Mother-of-Pearl Clouds are an extraordinary atmospheric occurence that appear in the sky in the polar regions during the winter. They are renowned for their vibrant, iridescent colours that resemble the sheen of mother of pearl, from which they get their name. Formed at high altitudes, these clouds are created when sunlight interacts with the tiny ice crystals they are made of, making them a rare and mesmerising spectacle for those lucky enough to witness them.
