2022 $20 FINE SILVER COIN
DISCOVERING DINOSAURS: MERCURY'S HORNED FACE

LIMITED TO THREE COINS PER CUSTOMER PER ADDRESS.

2nd coin of the series Discovering Dinosaurs.

Imagine the excitement of unearthing a new prehistoric species… The follow-up to 2021’s Reaper of Death, the second Discovering Dinosaurs coin from the Royal Canadian Mint places the viewer in the field and at the site of another important fossil find. Black rhodium plating represents the mysteries of prehistoric Canada on the coin’s reverse, where the engraved fossil belongs to Mercuriceratops gemini—a “new” ceratopsid unveiled in 2014.

 Black rhodium plating. Both sides (obverse and reverse) are enhanced with black rhodium. On the reverse, the plated rock texture represents the thrill of discovery: it transports the viewer to Alberta’s Dinosaur Provincial Park, where one of two Mercuriceratops specimens was found.
 Meet a “new” dinosaur. Like the Reaper of Death featured in 2021, this horned dinosaur is a relative “newcomer”: the species was unveiled in 2014 and has never appeared on a coin until now.
 Scientifically verified. Designed by one of Canada’s foremost paleoartists, this fossil depiction has been verified for scientific accuracy by the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology.
 Your dinosaur coin for 2022. Dinosaurs are a popular theme with collectors of all ages, and they're an important part of Canada's natural heritage
