2024 $20 Fine Silver Coin with Black Rhodium Plating Discovering Dinosaurs: Royal Horned Face plus Exclusive Bonus Dinosaur Coin

Travel back over 69 million years to Canada's prehistoric past and discover one of Canada's most recently discovered dinosaurs with this 2024 $20 fine silver coin featuring the Royal Horned Face, or Regaliceratops peterhewsi. The fossilized skull design contrasts against a black rhodium plated texture representing the hard rock concretion that encased the skull, which was found on the banks of the Oldman River in southern Alberta. The obverse also features rhodium plating behind the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Steven Rosati.  

Palaeontologists from the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller, Alberta, spent three years excavating the 268.64 kg fossil depicted on this coin. "When it was being prepared at the Royal Tyrrell Museum and before it received its official scientific name, Regaliceratops was given the nickname Hellboy because the fossil specimen had been very difficult to collect in the field and it was encased in very hard rock, making it very difficult to clean and prepare in the lab," says Dr. François Therrien, the museum's Curator of Dinosaur Palaeoecology.
