Titanoboa - Prehistoric Life 1 Oz Colorized Edition
The tenth issue of the Series Prehistoric Life from the Congo is dedicated to the giant snake Titanoboa.
The motive of the colored coin, struck from one ounce of 99.99% pure silver, features a specimen of a Titanoboa. In the background is a crocodile, whose depiction illustrates the size dimension of the Titanoboa in comparison. Above the two animals are the inscriptions "PREHISTORIC LIFE", "TITANOBOA", "60 - 58 MIO YEARS BC" and the year of issue 2023. The reverse features the coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of Congo. With an estimated body length of up to 13 meters and a weight of up to 1,135 kilograms, the extinct Titanoboa is the largest snake species in the history of the Earth. The only known species is Titanoboa cerrejonensis, whose remains have been found exclusively in the Cerrejón coal mine in the Departamento de La Guajira, Colombia, and can be assigned to the Paleocene era.
