Doctor Who’s cold-blooded rivals, reptilian humanoids known as the Silurians, feature on this 1/2oz silver coin. The Silurians were the dominant life-form on Earth before the evolution of humanity. Whilst honourable warriors, they often found co-habitation with humanity impossible, due to war-like factions on both sides. In collaboration, BBC Worldwide Australia & New Zealand and New Zealand Mint offer this collectable to continue Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary celebrations. Proof Quality 99.9% Pure Silver Each coin is meticulously struck from 1/2oz of 99.9% pure silver in superb proof quality.
