Description: Snap Up One of These Crocodile-Shaped Coins While You CanThe Nile Crocodile is without a doubt one of the most fearsome and terrifying animals in all of Africa. With an average size measuring 14 feet long, these modern-day cousins to the prehistoric dinosaurs are expert killing machines that are ready to make a meal out of anything that attempts to enter their domain. But now they’ve been cut down to size with a crocodile-shaped coin that’s an exact replica of this scaly reptile — only 50 times smaller!Exquisite Detail Highlights This Crocodile-Shaped CoinStruck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver by Switzerland-based Produits Artistiques Métaux Précieux — better known as PAMP SA — these unique shaped coins show an extremely well-detailed depiction of a Nile Crocodile. This coin measures a whopping 80.8 x 22.8 mm allowing for detail so exquisite that you can see every scale and count every tooth in the Croc’s gaping mouth! Like a dog panting, large crocodiles often rest on logs and riverbanks with their mouths open to keep from overheating. There’s also another benefit to this behavior: Small Egyptian Plover birds perch inside the crocodile’s mouth and pick the scraps from between the massive animal’s teeth. It’s no wonder that these little pint-sized dental hygienists are known as “Crocodile Birds.”Dazzling Reverse Proof FinishIssued on behalf of the Solomon Islands, these $2 legal-tender coins are the first release in the Animals of Africa series.
