No mistaking the subject here: Australian Man and Legend Ned Kelly (1855-1880) Bushranger Armor, front and center. That gold-plated finish marks this out as a keeper rather than a trinket. Turn the piece slowly and watch gold plated and portrait catch the light in turn.
The metalwork renders portrait with a crispness collectors notice. Serious collectors of collectible coins will want the portrait work in the tray, not the drawer. There is an honesty to the Australian Man and Legend Ned Kelly (1855-1880) Bushranger Armor design that mass-market coins lack. Details like portrait and gold plated give the composition its depth and keep the eye moving. Polish from the gold-plated finish, detail intact: the best of both. A novelty collectible coin of this quality punches well above its price.
The sort of souvenir coin that starts conversations at coin shows and club nights. Put this collectible coin where guests can see it; the questions will follow. The interplay of portrait and the gold-plated finish rewards daily glances.
