2009 $4 T-Rex Fossils of Canada Series Fine Silver Coin

3RD IN SERIES

DINOSAUR FOSSILS OF CANADA SERIES

From the world-famous fossil deposits of Alberta comes the king of all dinosaurs: Tyrannosaurus rex. With an overall length of 12 m (39 ft) and a gaping 1.85 m (6 ft) bite full of 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6 in) long teeth, it was the most ferocious of all!

This coin’s exceptional design reveals just how immense the jaws of this formidable predator were—it’s an amazing find that any coin collector, nature lover and dinosaur hunter would be proud to call their own.

A selective aging effect creates a powerful impression of fossilized bones in stone. In fact, this technique ensures no two coins are exactly alike. Each 99.99% pure silver coin is unique and—with a design that was developed in close collaboration with palaeontologists at Alberta’s Royal Tyrell Museum—is an original and compelling keepsake of one of humanity’s great fascinations.
