Description: This listing is for One mint coin (2 available) with original RCM box with certificate of authenticity. Imagine the excitement of unearthing a new prehistoric species! The followup to 2021’s sold-out Reaper of Death coin, the second Discovering Dinosaurs coin places you in the field and at the site of another discovery. RHODIUM PLATING! The black rhodium background represents the hidden or unknown past. This dark design element keeps the focus on the engraved fossils that have helped paleontologists piece together the story of prehistoric Canada. “NEW” DINOSAUR! Like the tyrannosaur on the first coin, this horned dinosaur is a relative “newcomer”—the 76-million-year-old Mercuriceratops was unveiled in 2014 and has never appeared on a coin until now. SCIENTIFICALLY VERIFIED! The fossil depicted on your coin has been verified for scientific accuracy by the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology. ENGRAVED TEXTURE! Beneath the rhodium plating on your coin’s reverse, the engraved texture represents the thrill of discovery: it resembles the rock formation in Alberta’s Dinosaur Provincial Park, where a Mercuriceratops skull fragment was found. FOR DINO LOVERS OF ALL AGES! Dinosaurs are a popular theme with collectors and Canadians of all ages. They're also an important part of Canada's natural heritage. INCLUDES SERIALIZED CERTIFICATE! The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins. NO GST/HST Design: Designed by Canadian paleoartist Julius Csotonyi, the coin’s reverse features the fossilized skull of Mercuriceratops gemini, a recently discovered horned dinosaur species. Beneath the black rhodium plating, the engraved texture represents the rock formation in Alberta’s Dinosaur Provincial Park where a key fossil fragment was found. The obverse also features rhodium plating behind the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Packaging: Your coin is individually encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
