HAHAHHA this was a route we were going in for a year or so.... but we couldn't make platinum coins that were different enough from the silver coins so it was too confusing..... so that's why diamonds ....

Actually very dark coins would have made great platinum coins. Pretty easy to distinguish from silvers imo

It looks like carbon coins... You'd rank them below copper.

Yes, but these coins don't look like the shiny, crystalline arrangement of carbon.

Hardest substance found in nature. They cut glass, suggest marriages, I suppose it replaced the dog as the girl's best friend.

Good job guys for your new shining bling bling.

My my, these are so… shiny and chrome!

Congrats to the select few who secured multiple diamond coins. You guys are maniacs, in the good sense of the word!

Back in the days when I started editing, the highest ranked contributors had two gold coins, which looked like Mount Everest back then… See how far Liquipedia has come in the meantime!
