about the geocoin


yes, it is a bit hard to pronounce: sahas-raara. sanskrit for 1000 petals lotus.

this is a very ancient geometric design consisting of eliptic circles forming triangles.

look a the coin and you think it is moving. very intriguing ...

there is a total of 1116 triangles on the first side. the dot in the center is a fake gem stone.

the re version is night-glowing.

the xxle edition has 16 colors (there was probably never another coin with more colors). it was released only in spring 2009. only 30pc were mindted of that version: 10 went to the most regular customers, 10’s purchase rights were raffled, and another 10 were sold on ebay.
