Comment
Well known for their agility and playful behaviour, Dolphins are highly intelligent marine mammals, making them a favourite of wildlife watchers. Many species will leap out of the water and follow ships, often synchronising their movements with one another.Now, for the first time, the popular Dolphin features on a Turquoise Titanium coin with the design showing three dolphins diving to great depths in the midst of a detailed designed underwater world. Due to the fact that they are difficult to strike and also with the way the coloured Titanium reacts when striking, no Titanium coin is exactly the same. Also, the lined effect that is present on the design and background is also unique to the Titanium metal.
