Dynamic: The first thing that strikes you about this coin is probably that other coins are depicted on it. They look like a cutout from a larger whole, thus symbolizing a larger entity: the trade itself. The asymmetrical cutout is striking because it is unusual and dynamic. It enticingly suggests that all the information (such as he value of 5 euro, or 10 euro for the golden coin) is available ‘by chance’.
