- The impressive motif shows a pectoral which was discovered in the tomb of Tutankhamun. The breast jewelry is a falcon holding the hieroglyphics for life and eternity in its claws. Above the falcon´s head shines a disc of sunlight. This pectoral is on exhibit at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Each coin is individually numbered on the edge and is therefore unique.
