Wow, the two-tone is really beautifully done! It looks simple at a glance, but the longer I look, the more I like!

I totally agree! Since we have been to Iceland this coin was a must for me and I ordered the twotone. It arrived yesterday and I love it!

Thanks Yanagi for bringing this coin to my attention.

I love the two-tone but also the others. I couldn't decide so I ordered the set. My poor bank account...
