This coin depicts a shimmering rose-gold-plated bones on an antique finish rock background making this coin a perfect addition to your collection. The 8th edition of the unrivaled Evolution of Life series depicts an Edaphosaurus that means ‘pavement lizard’ for its dense clusters of teeth. It is a genus of extinct synapsids. The unusual ‘sail’ on its back may have evolved for the roles of camouflage, protection against predator attacks, regulation of body temperature, or sexual display and species recognition.

It roamed the earth from Late Carboniferous to the Early Permian period (318 million to 271 million years ago). This primitive herbivorous relative of mammals reached a body length of over 3.5 meters, with a short, low skull and blunt, conical teeth.
