"Hi List. Just curious, does anyone out there who purchased the new Brenham
Coin notice that the side with the meteorite seems cloudy instead of shiny
like the Nantan Palau Coin? Is it just my coin or is this normal for this
coin. I just was comparing coins and noticed how the Brenham coin (meteorite
side) seems spotty then shiny. Just curious."

Hello Don,

Thanks for your interest in the Brenham coin.

The Nantan Palau coin is polished, such as proof coins are here in the US.
The Brenham coin is palladium plated in the sky,which gives it the "cloudy"
look...although I prefer to think of it more as a metal flake look. How
about metal flake ghost look?

Clear Skies,
Mark

Palladium is worth quite a bit more then silver, and closer to the price of
gold.
