Receiving the award without 10 million subscribers

It lists the YouTuber's name on the back along the sentence, 'Congrats on receiving 10 million subscribers.' The button is made of hard diamond, meaning it's at the medium difficulty of breaking it. However, the Red Diamond Play Button is very similar to it, since it has an identical design, but is made from a different material and is differently colored. The award is different from other creator awards, as it is displayed as a small sculpture, rather than contained in metal casing like the previous two.
