I think I started to like dinosaurs when I was a kid, around the same moment that I started to enjoy animals in general. Watched some documentaries and I remember a lot watching cartoons, such as "The Land Before Time", telling the saga of a young dinosaur called Little Foot and his friends. The more famous dinosaurs as a kid were T. rex, brontosaurus, triceratops, and Stegosaurus among others. After a while, probably at University, a teacher brought the reality. The most famous dinosaurs that we talk about aren't our local ones. Those dinosaurs that I cited were found in the region that now is the US and Canada. In Brazil we also had dinosaurs, but different ones, like Abelisaurus and Picnonemosaurus, which aren't the ones that we normally find in kids' books. That's because most of the world uses in many things North America as a reference, but anyways, now I live in the land of these giant animals that I learned during my younghood. So it is normal to find Canadian coins celebrating the discovery of these animals, especially most of them here in Alberta.
The Tyranossaur rex is considered the king of dinosaurs and it was used as a main character of the Jurassic Park movie, the most complete bone of this dinosaur was found in Alberta and it is in exposition at the Drumheller museum. I bought recently the amazing 1/4 oz silver coin and it is part of the $20 collection for $20. It is a coin from 2016 and it is a bit difficult to find through the coin dealers, at least the online ones. I found it at MK Coins for $27, not bad. The problem was the $15 fixed shipping. I could buy more coins to dilute this shipping, but I didn't want to. So finally at eBay, I could find it for $31.83 with shipping included. In the end, I was happy with this purchase, it was a coin that I wanted still it isn't that beautiful 1 oz silver with that dinosaur skull but it is something. I enjoyed the details of the full dinosaur, that is with his mouth opened and showing some type of movement, maybe chasing a prey.
The name of this dinosaur comes from "The king" he is very popular known as the king of dinosaurs. It was an apex predator in North America but maybe not the deadliest of all dinosaurs that existed. The Abelisaurus that I cited earlier was also considered one of the deadliest dinosaurs that was found in the region that we call today South America. In addition, the aquatic shark Megalodon certainly had the most powerful jaw of all. Some other dinosaurs, such as Spinosaurs also was dangerous. Establishing the most dangerous dinosaurs is tricky, maybe with the same difficulties when choosing between a lion, a cougar, a cheetah, or a tiger as the deadliest feline. There are lots of animals living in the world nowadays and it is difficult to tell which animal is the apex king, as many think about the T. rex. But for sure this animal is in the top 5 of the most feared animals of its time.
Acredito que comecei a gostar de dinossauros quando era criança, por volta do mesmo momento em que passei a apreciar animais em geral. Assisti a alguns documentários e me lembro muito de assistir a desenhos animados, como "O Vale Encantado", contando a saga de um jovem dinossauro chamado Pequeno Pé e seus amigos. Os dinossauros mais famosos na infância eram o T. rex, o brontossauro, o triceratops e o estegossauro, entre outros. Depois de um tempo, provavelmente na universidade, um professor trouxe a realidade à tona. Os dinossauros mais famosos dos quais falamos não são os que eram locais. Os dinossauros que eu citei foram encontrados na região que agora é os Estados Unidos e o Canadá. No Brasil, também tivemos dinossauros, mas diferentes, como o Abelissauro e o Picnonemossauro, que não são os que normalmente encontramos nos livros infantis. Isso porque a maior parte do mundo usa a América do Norte como referência em muitas coisas, mas de qualquer forma, agora eu moro na terra desses animais gigantes que aprendi durante minha juventude. Então, é normal encontrar moedas canadenses celebrando a descoberta desses animais, especialmente a maioria delas aqui em Alberta.
O Tiranossauro rex é considerado o rei dos dinossauros e foi usado como personagem principal no filme Jurassic Park. O osso mais completo desse dinossauro foi encontrado em Alberta e está em exposição no museu de Drumheller. Comprei recentemente a incrível moeda de prata de 1/4 oz e ela faz parte da coleção de $20 por $20. É uma moeda de 2016 e é um pouco difícil de encontrar através dos revendedores de moedas, pelo menos os online. Eu a encontrei na MK Coins por $27, nada mal. O problema foi o frete fixo de $15. Eu poderia comprar mais moedas para diluir esse frete, mas não quis. Então, finalmente no eBay, consegui encontrá-la por $31,83 com o frete incluído. No final, fiquei feliz com essa compra, era uma moeda que eu queria, embora não seja aquela bela moeda de 1 oz com o crânio de dinossauro, mas é algo. Gostei dos detalhes do dinossauro inteiro, com a boca aberta e mostrando algum tipo de movimento, talvez perseguindo uma presa.
O nome desse dinossauro vem de "O rei", ele é muito conhecido como o rei dos dinossauros. Era um predador de topo na América do Norte, mas talvez não o mais mortal de todos os dinossauros que existiam. O Abelissauro que mencionei anteriormente também era considerado um dos dinossauros mais mortais encontrados na região que hoje chamamos de América do Sul. Além disso, o tubarão aquático Megalodonte certamente tinha a mandíbula mais poderosa de todos. Alguns outros dinossauros, como os Espinossauros, também eram perigosos. Determinar os dinossauros mais perigosos é complicado, talvez com as mesmas dificuldades ao escolher entre um leão, uma onça, uma chita ou um tigre como o felino mais mortal. Existem muitos animais vivendo no mundo hoje em dia, e é difícil dizer qual animal é o rei supremo, assim como muitos pensam no T. rex. Mas com certeza esse animal está entre os 5 mais temidos de sua época.
