The success of the original Prehistoric Life Series led to the launch of a second collection, offering a new set of designs that feature even more fascinating dinosaurs. Starting in 2024, the Prehistoric Life II Series introduces species like the powerful Utahraptor. Known as one of the biggest raptors ever discovered, the Utahraptor could grow up to 23 feet in length and weigh around 1,500 pounds. Right now, you can order the 2024 1 oz Congo Silver Utahraptor Coin online at BullionMax.

Recent research suggests that Utahraptors may have hunted in packs to bring down larger herbivores like iguanodonts. This idea is supported by a remarkable fossil site called the “Utahraptor megablock,” where paleontologists found the remains of at least six Utahraptors of various ages. These fossils could represent a social group that died together, offering clues into how these predators might have lived and interacted.

Each 2024 1 oz Congo Silver Utahraptor Coin ships in an acrylic capsule for protection. This is the third design in the second series of Prehistoric Life coins, following the Triceratops and Suchomimus releases. All coins are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.

The obverse of the 2024 Congo Silver Utahraptor Coin shows the official coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of Congo. This emblem includes a leopard’s head in the center above a stone slab, with a spear on one side and an elephant tusk on the other.

On the reverse side of the 2024 1 oz Silver Utahraptor Coin, there is an illustration of the Utahraptor. Unlike the common scaly images of dinosaurs, this version shows a creature likely covered in feathers or protofeathers—features that may have helped it regulate body temperature or communicate with others in its group.
