2026 Vanuatu Double Silver Giant Smilodon Antiqued Coin with Copper Core

A Prehistoric Predator in Precious Metal

Step back 2.5 million years into the Ice Age with the 2026 Vanuatu Double Silver Giant Smilodon Coin. This numismatic masterpiece pays tribute to the legendary saber-toothed tiger, one of prehistory’s most powerful apex predators. Struck with two layers of 5 g .999 fine silver bonded to a solid 145 g copper core, the coin combines innovation with strength. Measuring 60 mm in diameter and finished with an antiqued patina, it captures the raw energy and untamed spirit of this iconic beast.

Ultra High Relief Detail

The design highlights the Smilodon’s famous elongated canine teeth in ultra high relief, drawing attention to the trait that made this predator both iconic and terrifying. Moreover, every detail of its muscular form and piercing gaze has been sculpted with extraordinary precision. As a result, the lifelike rendering makes the Smilodon appear ready to leap off the coin’s surface. The antique finish further enhances its dramatic appearance, blending modern minting expertise with prehistoric storytelling.

Limited Mintage and Legal Tender

Issued by Vanuatu as legal tender with a face value of 10 Vatu, this release balances artistry with official authenticity. Furthermore, the mintage is strictly limited to just 1,999 pieces worldwide.
