COIN HIGHLIGHTS

Ships individually in protective packaging
Consisting of 2 oz of 999 Fine Silver
Obverse: Features an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
Reverse: Features a Hawksbill Turtle with a stylized shell pattern swimming through the waters of the Pacific Ocean, along with the metal weight and purity

This coin is considered a Piedfort, meaning that it is twice the weight and twice the thickness of the 1 oz Hawksbill Turtle while retaining the same diameter.

The Hawksbill turtle is one of the two main turtle species of the South Pacific.

Although they are widely distributed throughout the world's tropical regions, Hawksbill Turtles are critically endangered due to human fishing practices.

They grow up to a metre in length and weigh 80 kg, although the heaviest on record weighed 127 kg.
