Description

A numismatic journey to the heart of one of the most mysterious civilizations
of ancient China. The design was inspired by the monumental masks of Sanxingdui
— a discovery that transformed understanding of China’s ancient past. Each detail of
the coin reflects the look of a 3,000-year-old artifact, while the combination of recessed
sculpture and high relief symbolizes the duality of the material and spiritual worlds.
