This remarkably fine, limited mintage 2020 1oz Niue Dinosaurs Pterodactyl Silver Colored Antique coin arrives as the 3rd release of the Niue Dinosaurs colorized antiqued series. With the great success of the inaugural 2020 release of the T-Rex offering, and the second of the Triceratops, we are excited to see the third release coming available! Following a similar basic layout, we are sure you will be pleased with this powerful Pterodactyl design.
The Pterodactyl is one of the most universally recognized dinosaurs among the general public, both young and old. This is likely in part due to the multitude of terrifying scenes depicted in popular movies for literally decades. Who among us has not cringed at such scenes, where no escape can be found from the winged attacks descending from the sky?
Of course, those depictions are mere fiction, but they have certainly been effective. Although the movies are entertaining, Paleontology presents a much different story on these ancient creatures.
As a legal tender release by Niue, the obverse displays the distinctive Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Inscriptions encircling the rim include, "ELIZABETH II . NIUE . TWO DOLLARS. 2020."
The reverse follows the basic design scheme of the series. Featured is the finely detailed colorized image of the Pterodactyl against an antiqued, rocky, prehistoric background. The colorization of this ancient winged beast is magnificent, as is the overall presentation of the scene from the sky view. Inscriptions include "Pterodactyl" at the top rim, and "1 oz Fine Silver" at the bottom.
