At first glance this looks like a 10 cent coin I am holding except that it is too BIG. Actually
this is one of those chocolates that are wrapped in gold foil with a coinage imprint on it. I am
disappointed that I appear to have grubby finger nails. Tch! Tch! Sorry! I was forced to hold the
camera with my operating hand alone. I got away with it somehow.

I particularly like the way your hand seems to be cradling the coin,
gentleness and strength (and the power of money) in 1 image.

It is very hard to keep nails clean every moment:) This image is very powerful and could be put to many uses with a message, beautifully executed!! Did you enjoy the chocolate? V

Superb light and details. As a reward for this fine image, you can have the chocolate. V
