| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Dilophosaurus depicted in left-facing stride occupies the central field, rendered in detailed relief above a gilded arrangement of skeletal bones set against a mountainous landscape background. The gilt treatment of the bones provides a vivid contrast to the matte copper substrate. The series title DINOSAURS IN ASIA appears in the upper field, while the primary legend DILOPHOSAURUS is prominently inscribed above the design. The date 2023 is placed in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Samoa's national coinage program has increasingly leaned on natural history themes to generate collector revenue, a funding mechanism common among small Pacific island nations with limited domestic numismatic demand. This piece belongs to a run of oversized copper issues clearly aimed at the thematic bullion and novelty collector market rather than circulation.
Dilophosaurus wetherilli was formally described in 1954 from Arizona specimens, though it gained broader public recognition — and considerable paleontological baggage — from its fictional depiction in Jurassic Park. The actual animal had no documented frill or venom delivery system.
