Iguanodon UK 2020 Silver Proof with Colour 50p Coin

There's just something about dinosaurs that fascinates both children and adults alike. Perhaps it's their menacing appearance or the mystery that surrounds their life, all we know is that they have intrigued people across the world ever since their remains were first discovered in 19th Century England. 

To celebrate the discovery of these remarkable creatures, The Royal Mint have created 'The Dinosauria Collection' - an exciting collection with the second coin released featuring the Iguanodon.

Meaning 'Iguana-tooth', Iguanodon was a large herbivore that could be found across land that is now Europe over 122 million years ago. Designed by paleo-artist Robert Nicholls, this remarkable creature can be seen dominating the reverse of the Brilliant Uncirculated 50p Coin. Alongside it is its unique thumb spike which is thought to have been used for self defence. 

The Iguanodon UK 2020 Silver Proof with Colour 50p Coin comes presented in a premium presentation case, alongside a certificate of authenticity and engaging information about the design and the impressive creature that is featured on it.
