2006 KAZAKHSTAN 500 Tenge, SPACE Bimetal Ag+Tantalum

Warning, Large File. Here is a simply gorgeous coin I picked up after seeing an example on another forum. This coin is pretty good sized and is composed of 14.6 grams of Sterling Silver (the outer ring) and 26.8 grams of Tantalum (inner portion) a man made material used in the Russian Space Program. Overall a very interesting piece.

Thanks for taking a look
