2025 Mammoth $1 1oz Silver Coloured Proof Coin
Honouring the mighty mammoth – in 99.9% silver!
Honouring one of the giants of the Pleistocene Epoch – known as the Last Ice Age, beginning around 2.6 million years ago – we are delighted to present the Mammoth 2025 $1 Silver Proof Coin!
Struck to the pinnacle of Proof quality from pure 99.9% silver, and enhanced with colour, the coin honours the Columbian Mammoth (Mammuthus colombi). An enormous herbivore, the Columbian Mammoth was one of the largest species of mammoths. Much bigger than its Woolly Mammoth counterpart, the Columbian Mammoth had a shoulder height of around 4 metres and could weigh as much 10 tons! In addition, they had tusks more than two metres in length!
Capturing the massive dimensions of this huge creature with the power of modern minting, the Mammoth 2025 $1 Silver Proof Coin is notable for a sharply detailed strike and expert use of full-colour. Spanning a crown-sized 38.60mm in diameter, the expansive flan forms a fine canvas for the accurate portrayal of this Ice Age giant. The perfect finishing touch, the border depicts a range of fossils!
