About this Product Full Product Name
 
Exclusive Yellow Titanium Coin!

The Lemon Shark or Negaprion Brevirostris is a large and powerful shark often found in shallow subtropical waters. The shark's yellow coloring serves as a perfect camouflage when swimming over the sandy sea floor. Tending to feed at night their diet consists of mainly fish and some crustaceans.

They have a magnetic sensor in their nose that allows them to attract prey and to find others to mate with. They depend on the sense of smell because they have very poor eyesight. It is 10,000 times stronger than the human nose! Without that sensor they would have a very hard time surviving.

This coin is struck in YELLOW TITANIUM. Due to being a difficult metal to strike, the way the colored Titanium, reacts when struck, no coin is exactly the same. There is a lined effect that is present on the coins which is also unique to Titanium metal.

The design on the coin depicts a Lemon Shark surround by a scattered shoal of fish. The obverse of the coin features an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II exclusively by Pobjoy Mint.

The 2016 Lemon Shark – Yellow Titanium Coin is produced at the British Pobjoy Mint, and is certified legal tender. It will arrive to you in a special collector’s display case with a certificate of authenticity.
