The Blue Ringed Octopus - small and brightly coloured. Exactly the kind of critter that wondering minds will pick up out of the oceanside rockpools... and then immediately regret it. The bite of one of these Australian Coastline residents will cause total body paralysis, leaving the unwitting victim unable to move or signal for help in any way. If not attended to promptly, the paralysis can take over the lungs and cease breathing! "Don't touch it" is the advice here... Unless it is on this coin!
An official Austrian Mint 3 euro coin, this cupro-nickel features the Blue Ringed Octopus in glorious full colour - and, better yet, if you shine a UV light on it, the blue rings glow just as in nature!
A low cost, pure collectable coin, each colourful, official Austrian legal tender issue will be delivered housed in a PVC-free SAFLIP.
