Verging on an obsession, perhaps, Claude Monet was passionate about painting Water Lilies, such as those found in his own garden pond. Up until his death, he created over 250 Water Lily paintings, with some of them fetching up to $54 million at auction today.
This coin takes one of those Water Lily paintings, and pieces it together with high precision minting in the form of a puzzle.
Struck with intricate detail, there appears to be a large number of puzzle pieces on this three ounce, 99.9% pure silver coin. On top of that, the precise colouring used to reflect Monet's masterpiece is unbelievable.
