2008 $4 Fine Silver Coin – Triceratops

This 2008 $4 silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint features the iconic Triceratops, easily identified by the trio of horns on its face. This coin showcases a complete Triceratops skull, a rare discovery made in Saskatchewan in 1967. The design has been approved by paleontologists at the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta. No two coins in the Giants of Prehistory Series are alike, thanks to a selective aging process that simulates the ancient rocks where dinosaur fossils are found.
