My Most Popular Item - Turtle coin from Colombia

At the current time, this coin is the most popular that I paint.  That can always change, but this coin deserves the attention!

The coin features a loggerhead turtle which is highly migratory. They return annually to their place of birth on the Colombian beaches for nesting and laying their eggs.  Unfortunately, these turtles are also critically  endangered.  This coin is both a beautiful design and is intended to help with awareness of the issues.
 
It is interesting that the wavy lines which represent the ocean waves on the coin, are there as a security device to prevent counterfeiting.  There is also very small text between the waves saying "aqua" which means "water.."  On the other side of the coin, you will find very small text that says "cuidar el agua" which translates to "take care of the water."  Pretty cool design and nice environmental message for all of us.
