Wow that's huge. but I guess it's not surprising considering it's a high denomination coin. What's the size, about 80-85 mm?

Maybe it's just me, but I can find something wrong with just about anything. :)  "Perfect" is something to strive for but maybe never achieve.

This is my favorite, but it's by no means perfect.  I have never seen a better example, but I can still imagine how I'd improve upon this one.  Not the design, but the surfaces.  Still, it's as close as I think I've come so far.

Cool one 'regandon'. As you said perfection is something achieved and even then, it may never be aquired. Here's one I'm throwing into the ring. I don't know if it qualifies as perfect, I still think it's pleasant for the eyes.

Oops! Bulleye, wrong bull.  :smack; Sorry. My salute goes to 'FilthyBroke'. Quite a beautiful specimen as always. The design is quite unique.
