100 Euros Croatian Coldblood, colored

The Croatian Coldblood — locally known as the Hrvatski hladnokrvnjak — was formally recognized as a distinct breed in 1931, though its working roots in the Pannonian lowlands stretch back considerably further through selective breeding with Noriker and other central European draft stock. Croatia's national bank has issued a series of native breed coinage since the country adopted the euro in January 2023, using these gold pieces partly to mark the transition away from the kuna and assert cultural continuity through numismatic output.

Color application on .999 gold at this specification is achieved through a controlled enamel or printing process — the surface preparation required means die polish characteristics differ from the non-colored counterpart in the same series.
