    Beautiful coin. But what is going on in the field around the king with all the 'noise'? Is that just in the photo?

    It looks like a textured pattern. It's rather uncommon. I have some French medals with a background of fleur-de-lis as "wallpaper."

    It's a tourist reproduction of a Hawaiian Akahi Dala. Looks pretty cool, though, eh?

    Very nice coin Theboz!! Is it gold? My question is serious, because the coin has some cozy red toning?!
