Leopard Seal Appears on New Ice Grey Titanium Coin from Pobjoy

The Titanium coin is produced by the Poboy Mint

Second only to the Killer Whale among Antarctica’s top predators, the Leopard Seal is the second-largest species of seal in the Antarctic. With its distinctively long and muscular body shape and its massive head and jaws, it has canine teeth that are around 2.5cm/1” in length – making this a highly dangerous predator to the smaller animals that inhabit this frozen area. A prominent feature of the leopard seal is its counter-shaded coat, with its dorsal side having a silver-to-dark-grey blended coat that make up its distinctive “leopard” coloration. The underside is paler – ranging from white to light grey.

The leopard seal lives in the cold waters surrounding the Antarctic continent but they are difficult to survey by traditional visual techniques as they spend long periods of time vocalising under the water during the months when the surveys are carried out.

Design

The design on the coin shows a leopard seal hunting for prey among a raft of penguins. The obverse of the coin features a fine effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II produced exclusively by Pobjoy Mint.
