The Croatian National Bank in cooperation with the Croatian Mint has issued, continuing the “Autochthonous Croatia” series, a coloured one-ounce (31.103 grams) gold collector coin “Black Lizard” in the 100 euro denomination. The coin is available in a limited series of 200 pieces. Minted in 999.9/1000 gold belongs to the investment gold category and comes in a box with a certificate signed by the governor of the Croatian National Bank.
The island of Brusnik, due to its geological history marked by volcanic origin and the presence of porous limestone, has been protected as a natural monument since 1951. The island is home to numerous endemic species, and one of its inhabitants enjoying the environment of crystal-clear sea and colourful underwater landscapes is the black lizard. Recognizable by its black colour and turquoise-blue spots, the black lizard, or “Podarcis melisellensis melisellensis”, is a symbol of nature conservation and biodiversity.
The design is signed by our renowned sculptor Nikola Vudrag, who introduces us to a story that may not be widely known but is certainly worth telling. The reverse of the coin depicts the topography of the island of Brusnik with sea waves in the background, along with an depiction of the black lizard, while the obverse side features a relief of the black lizard.
The packaging was designed by Dig studio.
The packaging are handmade and hide their uniqueness; each copy is imperfect in its own way. The basic design element of the “Autochtonous Croatia” product line is the “logo” of the product line with the letters laid in the shape of a chessboard. The base of the box is made of red paper with a special structure that represents the Croatian square.
