# 166 - Day of Dinosaurs

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago (edited)

In 2016, the Royal Canadian Mint issued the set "Day of Dinosaurs" showing us prehistoric creatures that roamed the Canadian land before us.

Each is a $10 coin weighting 15.87g with 99.99% silver purity and Colored Proof finish.

All the designs were reviewed for scientific accuracy by paleontologists of the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology.
