2022 Austria Cupro-Nickel €3 Color Supersaurs (Microraptor)
The 2022 Austrian Supersaurs series brings the ancient world to life with this cupro-nickel three-euro coin. This issue highlights the Microraptor gui, a diminutive creature from the early Cretaceous Period that lived about 120 million years ago. Fossil discoveries in China have provided scientists with remarkable details of this dinosaur, revealing its feather patterns and coloration, which offer key evidence of the evolutionary connection linking early dinosaurs to modern birds. On the reverse, a vivid, color-printed depiction shows the Microraptor in its natural forest environment. The obverse features a detailed collage representing all twelve prehistoric beasts celebrated throughout the Supersaurs series. Struck by the Austrian Mint, this piece serves as a fascinating miniature canvas blending paleontology with modern minting artistry.
