Unique Gecko-Shaped Coin Struck in Pure Silver

Thanks to a string of GEICO commercials that have aired for the past 20 years, the gecko is perhaps the most recognizable lizard on the planet. But television’s anthropomorphic, Cockney-accented insurance mascot pales in comparison to a fabulous new gecko-shaped coin that features incredible detail on its uniquely UN-coin-like shape.

Struck by Coin Invest Trust (CIT) on behalf of the Republic of Palau, this delightful piece was minted in a full ounce of highly-pure 99.9% silver. The detail is so amazing it almost looks like this $5 legal-tender coin is a piece of cast metal rather than a coin that was struck by a press. Thanks to CIT’s patented Smartminting© technology, the remarkable detail on 2018 Palau Gecko coin mimics the shape and skin of a real gecko right down to its bulging eyes and curvy toes. The coin’s obverse is flat except for the Palau Coat of Arms along with the coin’s weight, purity, date, denomination and name.

Your 2018 Palau $5 Gecko Shaped One-Ounce Silver Coin will come in beautiful Gem Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition, meaning that it is the product of a superb strike that places it firmly among the elite of the run. In addition, each Gecko coin also features a special satin, antique finish to enhance the detailed design.

Only 999 of these adorable little coins have been struck for worldwide release. Whether you like geckos, collect unique-shaped coins, or would simply like to add some silver to your collection, now’s your chance. It’s a great gift idea, too! Each comes in its original government packaging and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Add one to your cart today!
