The Obsidian Septagram of Dominion is a symbol of the Obsidian Order, and can often be found on their architecture. Perhaps the best known use, however, is imprinted on the Crowns of the Obsidians.

This symbol features a septagram, or seven pointed star. In the center of the star is the Obsidian Eye, composed on three concentric circles, two barred lines, and two semicircles (totaling seven lines). Above the Obsidian Eye are seven rays of illumination. At least on the Crowns, the septagram is surrounded by a ring of fifty dots; it is unknown if this ring is featured in all architecture.

The reverse face of the coin features the Obsidian symbol of two upraised hands with three shards above, surrounded by seven cogs. On each cog is a Runic letter, in order from top moving clockwise "S P F T E R D". Around the outside appears to be a striped pattern of light and dark, totaling twenty seven of each (fifty four in total).

Trivia

  • The symbol was named The Obsidian Septagram of Dominion in a development post by Scottie Jones.[1] It has previously appeared in Obsidian architecture, and on the Crown coins, but without being named.
  • The back of the coin can be seen by placing one as a decoration on a shelf with the edge sticking out, positioning the camera below it, and rotating the coin.
