Get ready to put your thinking caps on! This first-in-a-new series coin is LOADED with math. Minted for Tokelau by the Pressburg Mint, the 2022 Tokelau Magnum Opus 1/10 oz Gold Prooflike is based on the principle of the ‘golden ratio,’ which states that two quantities are in the golden ratio if their ratio is the same as the ratio of their sum to the larger of the two quantities.
Did you get all of that? Don’t worry if you didn’t. The golden ratio has baffled scientists and mathematicians for centuries. With a worldwide mintage of only 3,000, don't overthink securing your quantity now!
As a legal tender offering of Tokelau, the coin's obverse displays the Ian Rank-Broadly effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Inscriptions: "ELIZABETH II . TOKELAU 2022. 1/10 oz FINE GOLD." Offset from the effigy of Her Majesty is a sphere with curved triangles that gives way to a pseudo-paisley design. This gives way to a cross-like pattern that features a similar triangle design. A solid layer precedes a star-shaped circle. Each progressive level is smaller than the one before it. The background features stylized pinwheel shapes.
This coin is part of the Magnum Opus Gold Coins series, celebrated for its intricate and mathematically inspired designs.
The reverse side of the coin features a myriad of shapes that fit the parameters of the golden ratio. Three rectangles appear to be rotating on a common axis, and each contains a variety of shapes and designs. The background is filled with the same design as the Obverse's background. Inscriptions are "MAGNUM OPUS" (inscribed on one side of each rectangle) and "10 DOLLARS."
