Gin Matsuba Koi – 8"–10" (Premium)
Gin Matsuba — Silver Pinecone Koi
The Gin Matsuba is one of the most visually striking metallic koi varieties, prized for its brilliant silver (gin) base and the distinctive pinecone-scale (matsuba) reticulation that runs the length of its body. Each scale is outlined in dark ink, creating a mesmerizing net-like pattern that catches and reflects light with every movement.
This Premium-grade specimen displays exceptional body conformation, strong finnage, and well-defined matsuba patterning with warm amber accents developing across the flanks — a hallmark of a high-quality Gin Matsuba as it matures. Hand-selected by Steven Russom of Crystal Creek Koi Farm for outstanding coloration, scale definition, and overall presentation.
