The emperor tamarin is an arboreal primate occurring in South America. Thanks to its bizarre, humorous-looking white moustache the animal was compared to the German Emperor and King of Prussia Wilhelm II (to whom it allegedly bore remarkable resemblance). Hence the name of the species – the emperor tamarin. Our silver coin devoted to this lovely little monkey will undoubtedly attract the attention of many coin collectors! Thanks to high-end digital printing the image of the tamarin imprinted on the reverse is extremely lifelike. Dark-grey SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS additionally elevate the visual quality of the coin.
In the central part of the coin – effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Below it – mint mark: m/w, hallmark: Ag 999. Along the rim – inscriptions separated by decorative dots: ELIZABETH II, NIUE ISLAND (issuer), 1 DOLLAR (face value), 2016 (year of issue).
In the central part of the coin – colorful image of an emperor tamarin decorated with two SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS. Right-hand – relief image of the species. Along the rim – name of the coin: EMPEROR TAMARIN.
