One of the most sensational fossil finds in history, and foundational to the rise of public interest in paleontology, was the discovery of the first Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton in Hell Creek, Montana in 1902 by the fossil hunter Barnum Brown. He followed up the find with a second find of a near-complete skeleton six years later. The mighty predator of a long-lost world almost immediately riveted the public imagination with its four-foot jaw, six-inch teeth, and strangely tiny, nearly vestigial arms. To this day it remains arguably the most popular of all the dinosaurs, with an instantly-recognizable silhouette and a massive presence in popular media. Now it’s paid tribute by the 2022 3 oz Antique Republic of Chad Silver Tyrannosaurus Dissected Coin.
Coin Highlights:
The Tyrannosaurus Rex has loomed large in the human imagination for well over a century, the king of the long-lost dinosaurs who once ruled the Earth. The massive predator has had a long “career” in the film industry going back to 1918, with arguably its most famous appearance coming in Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park in 1993. It has also been a fixture of television and books, with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World casting a particularly long shadow. There is no other dinosaur that can match its iconic status.
The 2022 Antique Republic of Chad Silver Tyrannosaurus Dissected Coin provides an equally iconic shaped coin design to match the majesty of its subject matter. Shipping in a themed case with its own Certificate of Authenticity, this extraordinary coin provides three full ounces of pure silver and features finely-detailed engraving highlighted by an antique finish.
The obverse side presents a “dissected” view of the dinosaur that shows aspects of its skeletal and muscular structures. Inscriptions of the year and country of issue and the coin’s face value appear at the center of mass.
The coin’s reverse side is a realistic sculpture of the dinosaur with a scaly hide intact, with the inscription “Tyrannosaurus Dissected” appearing on its gracefully curved tail.
