This beautifully minted coin is for the 20th year Buddhist Fellowship. This coin is naturally toned and it's really tough to get. This piece originated from a Frenchman who has been keeping this coin for 10 years. Very clear & strong strike with rainbow-like tone. A great piece to add to my collection.
