STEGOSAURUS Prehistoric World 1 Oz Silver Coin 1$ Niue 2024
31.1 (1 oz). This formidable 1 Oz Silver coin is part of the “Prehistoric World” series and is dedicated to the Stegosaurus, an armored herbivorous dinosaur from the Late Jurassic, characterized by the distinctive kite-shaped upright plates along its back and spikes on its tail. A fun fact about the Stegosaurus is that it supplemented its diet by intentionally swallowing small rocks, to better digest the vegetation in its stomach by moving around in there and helping to break up the foliage. The coin has a Proof quality, beautiful selective coloration, and comes in a black leather case, along with the Certificate of Authenticity. Limited mintage of 1.000 pieces worldwide! The reverse of the coin features two Stegosaurus, colored with bright colors in a wonderfully realistic way. On the background, a Jurassic wilderness, from which the bigger Stegosaurus seems to protect the little one. The scene conveys both concern and caring for one’s fellows and might. At the bottom of the reverse, the inscription: “STEGOSAURUS” – the name of the coin. The obverse of the coin depicts the Public Seal of Niue surrounded by the skeleton of the animal. All around the obverse, the inscriptions: “1 DOLLAR” – the face value, “2024” – the year of issue, and “PREHISTORIC WORLD” – the name of the series.
