2017 Palau 10 Dollar 45-gram Silver Sea Turtle Antique Finish
Continuing a Consistent Favorite among Animal Lovers -- in 99.9% Fine Silver!
For divers, snorkelers, and animal lovers young and old, this 2017 Palau Antique Silver Sea Turtle is a great way to enjoy one of the ocean’s most beloved characters on dry land. Sea turtles have a way of mesmerizing those who see them, especially those who see them in their natural habitat. Their graceful movements as they glide through the water make them a topic of conversation, while depictions in popular culture, such as in Disney movies, only add to the fascination that so many people have with them. This shaped sea turtle is executed in fine detail, with smartminting™ technology used to accentuate every detail. On the obverse of the coin is the Republic of Palau’s coat of arms, which consists of a man rowing a canoe above a shield that bears an image of Poseidon sitting on the ocean floor between a treasure chest and a mermaid.
- Shaped Image of a Beloved Sea Creature – Complete with the shell, feet, and head.
- 45 Grams of 99.9% Pure Silver – Fine silver for fine detail!
- Continuing a Popular Series – A great way to start or grow your animal shaped collection.
- Ten Dollars Legal Tender for the Island Nation of Palau - Struck at Germany’s Mayer Mint, one of the most respected sources in Europe.

- Smartminting™ Technology – Simplified relief that brings out every detail.
Given that most people think of sea turtles swimming through clear, warm blue waters, it is appropriate that this coin was issued by Palau. Palau is a tropical archipelago in the western Pacific Ocean. It is the type of island nation to which many dream of escaping on a regular basis, complete with warm sun and beautiful beaches. While holding a coin of a beautiful sea creature isn’t the same as being there, this coin offers you the chance to experience just a little bit of that kind of experience every day. Turtles may move slowly, but this coin will not. Order yours from GovMint.com today before all of these pieces have swum away into private hands!
