Comment

6th out of six coins in the Virenium African Animal Mask series.

Interesting fact

The Meerkat coin from Sierra Leone is a unique and rare collector's item, as it is made of a rare metal called Virenium, which is a silver-colored alloy that is resistant to tarnishing and corrosion. This makes the coin stand out from other coins made of more common metals like copper or nickel. Additionally, the coin's design features a meerkat, which is a social and curious animal that is native to Africa, adding to its appeal for collectors.
