| Beschrijving voorzijde | At center, a palm tree, a camel, and a traditional dhow sailing on the sea are depicted within a beaded inner circle. A trilingual legend encircles the design along the toothed rim, rendered in Tigrinya, English, and Arabic, reading 'ERITREA' in each respective script. The date '1993' and the mint mark 'PM' appear at the base of the legend. The overall composition reflects Eritrea's natural and maritime heritage in a clean, engraved style. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Eritrea declared independence from Ethiopia in May 1993 after a 30-year war — one of Africa's longest — and almost immediately began issuing commemorative coinage, despite having no functioning central bank and no domestic mint. These early issues were produced entirely for the international collector market, struck under contract at foreign facilities, and never meaningfully circulated within Eritrea itself. The dinosaur series was a calculated move to generate hard currency through numismatic sales, a strategy common among newly sovereign or economically marginal states in the 1990s.
KM#25 belongs to a broader prehistoric fauna series issued that same inaugural year.
