The tiger shark, commonly known as the "sea tiger," is the fourth-largest shark in the world. Tiger sharks get their name from eye-catching dark vertical stripes found on young sharks, also known as pups. As these pups mature into adults, the dark stripes begin to fade. The skin of a tiger shark typically ranges from blue to light green with a white or light-yellow underbelly, giving it great camouflage when seen from above or below.
This solitary shark ranges in size from 10 to 14 feet and weighs from 849 to 1,400 pounds as an adult, but large specimens have been known to grow up to 25 feet in length and weighing up to 1,900 pounds. Tiger sharks enjoy warm waters and can easily be spotted near the surface in tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world such as Hawaii. Though this predator of the deep is at the top of the food chain, it is considered a near-threatened species due to finning and fishing by humans.

My first 1/2 oz silver coin- it's really not a small coin, as I was expecting. The available capsule (separate purchase) has a clear gap around the edge, so that it coordinates with other larger format coins, and really brings out the beauty of the coin. I discovered later that this is part of a 3 part series with Great White Shark & Hammerhead Shark, which I have now collected separately. I wish there were more 1/2 silver coins!
- Pros
- Value (low premium over spot)
- Attractive Design
- Collectible (lower mintage)
- Bottom Line
- Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I purchased multiple 1/2 oz shark coins (Great White, Tiger, Hammerhead) and I was very pleased when they arrived. I set each coin in a 32 mm holder and just love they way they look. These were the first 1/2 oz rounds in my collection and there will be more added in the future.
