The 1993 Gibraltar 1 Crown “Preserve Planet Earth” Stegosaurus silver coin is an impressive prehistoric-themed commemorative celebrating one of the most recognizable dinosaurs ever discovered. Issued as part of Gibraltar’s popular environmental and wildlife series, the coin combines paleontological fascination with artistic numismatic craftsmanship. Dedicated to the ancient Stegosaurus, this release appeals to collectors of dinosaurs, natural history, and unusual world coins.
The reverse presents a detailed depiction of a Stegosaurus standing in profile with its famous double row of large dorsal plates extending from neck to tail. The dinosaur’s small head, curved beak-like mouth, muscular legs, textured skin, long tail, and defensive spikes are carefully engraved against reflective silver fields. Above and around the image appears the inscription “PRESERVE PLANET EARTH,” emphasizing the educational and conservation theme of the series, while “1 CROWN” is placed below together with the name “STEGOSAURUS.” The design creates a striking combination of prehistoric imagery and modern commemorative style. The obverse features the elegant portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the royal crown, pearl necklace, and earrings. The surrounding inscriptions read “ELIZABETH II,” “GIBRALTAR,” and the year “1993,” all framed by a classic denticle border that enhances the refined appearance of the coin.
Struck in silver with proof-quality surfaces, this Gibraltar crown is a memorable collectible for enthusiasts of dinosaurs, Jurassic-era creatures, science, fossils, and educational numismatics. Its distinctive theme and attractive artwork make it a standout addition to any world coin or prehistoric animal collection.
