| Description of obverse and reverse | The obverse of the coin pays tribute to the architecture of this exceptional cathedral by depicting its most distinguishable features: the gargoyles, the towers and the centre of the rose window.

| A brief annotation | An irrefutable masterpiece of Gothic art, Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris receives more than 13 million visitors a year from around the world. This extraordinary building, which foundations date back to 1163, has been registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In 2013, to celebrate the 850th anniversary of its construction, the cathedral will receive a new set of bells including a bourdon. This anniversary has inspired Monnaie de Paris to pay its own tribute by issuing a coin dedicated to the cathedral. New technology has been developed to create a special «stained glass window» coin. The ?10 silver coin is enhanced with cold, translucent resin, reminiscent of the cathedral’s great rose window. |

Здесь монете добавляет интерес полупрозрачный синий полимер для передачи эффекта витражного стекла.

полупрозрачный синий полимер для передачи эффекта витражного стекла улучшил монету, по сравнению с золотой серебро более выигрышно смотрится

А вот и выделение цветом, о чем я и говорил. Совсем другое дело. Монета заиграла другими гранями.
