Tales of colossal monsters, abyssal chasms, and gigantic sea creatures have spun legends of the ocean’s mysteries. For some, this realm is not mere sci-fi but a disturbing reality. Thalassophobia, an intense dread of vast bodies of water, shatters dreams of life by the sea, cozy beach visits, and pleasant boat trips. Consider the chilling allure of cinematic sea horrors – the iconic “Jaws” franchise, “Deep Blue Sea,” and “Open Water,” all examples of the sea’s bone-chilling grip on our imagination. The coin features a giant shark rising from the depths of the ocean, unnoticed by the swimmer drifting along. Thanks to an ingenious combination of inverted ultra-high relief, color and enamel, the scene looks deceptively real.
