About the Artist
The design was graphically embodied by Master Artist, Edo Huang, under the direction and vision of Jeff Copeland.
Edo has been a long time respected specialty deck designer, creating beautifully inspired artwork for card magicians, cardist, and collectors. His work now appears on a custom coin for the first time… and it is a perfect example of style and grace that any nation would be envious to have on their currency.
Giving Back
The Tiger-Tan coin is named after the two rare animals it highlights. Our modern world has not been kind nor generous to wildlife. 60% of the life on earth has disappeared in just the last 40 years according to the World Wildlife Fund.
Tigers and Orangutans are two of the hardest hit species. Both critically endangered, they have been vanishing from our planet. The Trésor project proudly highlights these magical animals and a portion of each sale is donated to their survival for all future generations! To date, we have raised over $6,000 dollars!
Footnotes
*Please Note: Each coin is hand groomed to have small variations and the appearance of light circulation in the real world. For this reason each coin will have small, intentional variances in color. Coins purchased in sets are matched to look the same.
Similar to a new deck of cards, these coins may be a little slick until used for a couple of days.
Coins are not legal tender. They have no cash value and present no cash value. Technically speaking these are "rounds," not coins.
