The land around the South Pole, the Antarctic, is the coldest place in the world. The temperature there has been known to fall below -80˚C/-112˚F. Like all Antarctic penguins, the Emperor, which is the tallest and heaviest of all penguins, has a thick layer of densely packed feathers which trap the air to keep the bird warm, acting as a thermal vest. To celebrate the fact that this species not only survive but also manages to keep their young safe in these extreme conditions, Pobjoy Mint is delighted to announce the release of a 2019 blue Titanium coin on behalf of the British Antarctic Territory.
The design on the coin itself features a male and female Emperor penguin with their newly born chick sitting on the feet of one of the adults. The obverse of the coin features the exclusive Pobjoy Mint effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Titanium reacts differently with every strike, so each Titanium Emperor Penguin coin is technically different and varies slightly in colour. There is also a lined effect that is present on the coins which is unique to this metal.
The Titanium coin is shipped encapsulated in an acrylic capsule for protection and housed in a stunning red box with a Certificate of Authenticity.
