Cthulhu and H.P. Lovecraft
The master of cosmic horror brought forth his most recognizable monster into public consciousness with the following words:
A monster of vaguely anthropoid outline, but with an octopus-like head whose face was a mass of feelers, a scaly, rubbery-looking body, prodigious claws on hind and fore feet, and long, narrow wings behind

Cthulhu was the high priest of the Great Old Ones who ruled the Earth before mankind even existed. Laying dormant in the sunken city of R'lyeh, Cthulhu sleeps and his dreams were said to influence early humans to form the cult of Cthulhu, which chants the words "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" whose translation into English is revealed upon this rare coin when seen through a looking glass.

From the ocean he rises! this coin is a great gift for a Lovecraft fan or a person who loves the RPG.(Roll Playing Game) Call of Cthulhu. NO sanity roll needed to view this coin. would make an expensive prop for a game. So keep searching investigators. remember He who must not be named, (this predates VOLDOMORT) maybe next.
