2022 1/2 oz Niue Silver Bigfin Reef Squid Coin l JM Bullion™

The Mint says about this coin:

The bigfin reef squid is a widely-distributed species of squid — or perhaps a group of very closely-related squid species — living in shallow depths in the tropical and temperate waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, found as far west as the Red Sea and recently even spotted as a migrant species in the Mediterranean. Particularly prolific in the coral and rock reef environments that give them their name, they are known for their mesmerizing eyes and their elaborate mating behavior and are an economically important resource to human societies in countries throughout their range in both Asia and, of course, Africa. Their profile among African wildlife is commemorated by the Lithuanian Mint with the 2022 1/2 oz Antique Colorized Niue Silver Wild Africa Series Bigfin Reef Squid Coin.
