Certain to warm the heart with its adorable coloured reverse design, this utterly charming coin is a fantastic way to express love and affection.
Sea otters are social creatures, spending the majority of their lives in groups. They often float on the water’s surface by lying on their backs and are commonly seen sleeping in this posture.
Mothers are devoted to raising their young, carrying the pup on their chest to nurse. Family units hold hands while sleeping on their backs to ensure they don’t drift apart in the currents.
Struck by The Perth Mint from 1/2oz of 99.99% pure silver in proof quality, the coin is issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 7,500 of the Always Together 2020 1/2oz Silver Proof Coin.
