The motive of the premium bullion coin struck from one ounce of 99.99% silver depicts a Utahraptor in a prehistoric landscape. The dinosaur has its mouth wide open and shows its spread, sharp claws. Above the dinosaur are the inscriptions âPREHISTORIC LIFEâ, âUTAHRAPTORâ, â131 - 126 MIO YEARS BCâ and the year of issue 2024. The reverse depicts the coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of the Congo as well as the weight, fineness and denomination. The Utahraptor was one of the largest known representatives of the Dromaeosauridae and is often compared with the smaller and better-known Velociraptor. It could grow up to seven meters long and about two meters high. A characteristic feature of this genus is the large, sickle-shaped claw on the second toes, which was probably used to hunt and hold prey. Its strong hind legs and sharp claws indicate that it was capable of both fast movements and powerful attacks. Its diet probably consisted of medium-sized to large dinosaurs. Utahraptor is a fascinating example of the diversity and adaptability of dinosaurs and offers insights into the dynamic world of prehistoric predators.
