This piece is poker culture memorabilia and game-room décor, honoring the stories and symbols that make poker more than just a card game.
The skull imagery and bullet hole detail represent the dramatic storytelling often seen in modern poker-themed art and memorabilia, reflecting poker's connection to Wild West history and frontier legend.

About the Design
The front of this coin features a detailed skull centerpiece with a bullet hole, flanked by the Ace of Spades on the left and Ace of Clubs on the right—two of the cards from the legendary Dead Man's Hand. Above the skull, a red and white striped arch with star accents creates a bold, eye-catching frame that evokes vintage Americana and Old West saloon imagery. The "Dead Man's Hand" text appears prominently, rendered in bold lettering that makes the coin's historical theme instantly recognizable.
The reverse side continues the Wild West poker theme with complementary design elements that maintain the coin's visual drama and collectible appeal. The high-relief details and enamel finish give the piece substantial depth and dimension, making it stand out whether displayed on a desk, shelf, or in a collector's case. The gold, black, and red color scheme creates a striking contrast that conveys both elegance and edge, while the 40mm diameter provides impressive presence. Collectors appreciate this coin for its bold design, its celebration of poker history and legend, and its quality construction that makes it suitable for long-term display.
