MM - Balance - On a knife edge

The image depicts a simple physical balance but the phrase "on a knife edge" has much wider connotations and can apply to all manner of situations in which the outcome could easily go one way or another.. I used in-camera focus stacking for this image to achieve the depth of field. Annoyingly the bottom of the coin is opposite the P on one of the twelve apexes so it is impossible to stand the coin upright!
