This gilded silver coin represents the Chergach Meteorite Strike. The gilded finish is reminiscent of the Sahara Desert, where the chondrite meteorite was found ten years ago in July 2007 near Timbuktu. Naturally, a fragment of the actual meteorite rests in the crater depression. During this monitored destruction process, the break points occur at random, making each coin unique.
