Title: Sherlock Holmes: The Sign of Four – High Relief Silver Coin
Description
The second release in the Sherlock Holmes numismatic series, this design focuses on the famous novel "The Sign of Four." Unlike the street scenes of previous designs, this piece captures an intimate, character-driven moment set within a meticulously detailed Victorian parlor.
The composition highlights the introduction of Mary Morstan to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. The challenge was to translate the domestic setting into a high-relief sculpture while maintaining the elegance and atmosphere of 221B Baker Street.
Artistic & Production Features:
Intricate Interior Detail: Every element—from the texture of the striped sofas and the patterned rug to the ornate wall moldings—is designed to showcase the precision of High Relief minting.

Character Dynamics: A focus on Victorian fashion and posture, capturing the formal yet tense atmosphere of the scene.
