A close view of the wolf's facial features dominates the reverse, where the selective application of a chartreuse-like coloured enamel to each iris immediately pulls the focus towards the animal's unforgettable gaze. The colour effect adds a glowing intensity to the eyes, which appear to be fixed on the viewer. Breaking free from this unrelenting stare, a careful study of the wolf's other features reveals an outstanding amount of detail throughout the design. Advanced finishing and shading techniques enhance the intricate engraving, and provide a realistic sense of depth, texture and contrast to the wolf's ears, nose, mouth and fur. 2017 Pure Gold One-Kilogram Coin - In the Eyes of the Timber Wolf Shop RCM New Releases Report this Post to the Staff
