Product Details
To celebrate the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, the Austrian Mint is embarking on an undersea adventure that will show just how fascinating and colorful the underwater world can be.

Coin Highlights:
  • Cupro-nickel composition.
  • Individual coins are packaged in protective packaging.
  • Mintage of 65,000 coins.
  • Obverse: All 12 of the magical sea creatures in the Luminous Marine Life series are shown in silhouette on the coin’s obverse. Air bubbles up between them and a tail fin disappears beneath the waves to the right.
  • Reverse: On the coin’s reverse, a wide band, reminiscent of an old-fashioned porthole frames an aquatic scene that features a yellow stingray in the centre. A pair of tropical fish and a tube sponge can be seen in the background.
  • Guaranteed by the Austrian Mint.

The yellow stingray’s green glow is the result of its ability to reflect light with the help of endogenous substances. The function of this luminescence is not clear but the stingray may use it to communicate with other members of its species and as a form of camouflage.

No more than 75 centimeters in length, the yellow stingray is able to keep a watchful eye on its surroundings as its eyes are located at the highest point on its flat, almost circular body. An additional safety feature is the pointed, dagger-like spike covered in poisonous skin that sits far back on its tail.

Used for self-defense, the sting comes into its own if the stingray is being held in the mouth of a shark, when it whips its tail at lightning speed and stabs the aggressor.
