Product Description
Giant Coconut Crab 1oz Silver Coin – NZ Mint
About the Design
New Zealand Mint is excited to release the Giant Coconut Crab 1oz Silver Coin and scented Coconut case. The Giant Coconut Crab, also known as the robber crab or palm thief, is a species of terrestrial hermit crab. It is the largest land-living arthropod in the world, and is at the upper size limit of terrestrial animals with exoskeletons weighing up to 4.1kg. Found on Islands across the Indian Ocean and parts of the Pacific Ocean, the species is widely reported to climb trees to pick coconuts, which it then opens to eat.
Obverse
The obverse of the coin features the Raphael Maklouf effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Reverse
The reverse features a coloured image of the Giant Coconut Crab printed on the finely engraved silver background of a beach.
Presentation
The coin is packaged in a delightful coconut shaped custom mold case, which is scented with a distinctive coconut oil fragrance.
