This is massive 63.5 mm version of Sealand's Giant $2.50 "Orca Whale" coin! This is a flawless "cameo" proof strike; the backgrounds are perfect reflective "blazing-mirrors" (which show up jet-black in scans) and the designs are frosty white (which, of course show up white in scans). The contrast between the mirror-like backgrounds and design is stunning! It is richly layered in pure .999 fine silver. It is easily distinguished from the pure silver versions of the same coin by it's weight of 3-3/4 ounces (vs. 5oz for the pure silver) and a plain edge (the pure silver versions have a reeded edge along with the edge markings attesting to their silver purity).
