| Reverse description | Highly detailed three-dimensional representation of the Popigai impact crater, rendered in antique finish with multiple tonal layers conveying depth and geological texture. The central focal point is an authentic fragment of meteorite embedded in the coin, set within a deeply sculpted bowl surrounded by concentric rings of radiating ejecta and crater walls highlighted with copper-toned patination. The surrounding field is textured to evoke the rugged, disturbed terrain characteristic of a large astrobleme. The legend METEORITE CRATER POPIGAI curves along the upper rim in raised Latin lettering. |
