Help Please Identifying Jurassic Coin

And that's the only one that matches with Google Lens.

Maybe something sold in the gift shop at a Natural History Museum?

Thank you for the information very much appreciated.

The ebay listing that John1 posted was the one I saw as well.

It is interesting if it really is worth $150 or that it is 1oz silver, as it was part of a kilo pack of world coins that I only paid $40 Australian for.

There is also quite a few interesting world coins in it, which I will post soon once I have catalogued them and put them in cases.

So I might have actually scored well on this purchase, which is a nice.

It doesn't say it's silver, unlike the ones posted by Brandmeister, so it almost certainly isn't.


I don't think so. A natural history museum worth their salt would not want to encourage or perpetuate the myth that T. Rex was a "Jurassic" dinosaur. T. Rex was a Cretaceous Period dinosaur, 73-66 million years ago, not 190 million, and actual palaeontologists have always known this.

Given this casually incorrect use of the word "Jurassic", I can only assume it dates from the time of release of that creator and perpetrator of this incorrectness, the movie Jurassic Park. So, 1993 or shortly afterwards.

Thank you for the tip John1 much appreciated, I tested it and it's not silver. So still not really sure what it is or where it came from but I don't mind as I like it and that's all that really matters.
