Sierra Leone The Big Cats Cougar 2001 $1 Coin Prooflike KM-244.1

While anyone who has ever loved a pet cat can understand the beauty and mystery of these amazing creatures, the “big cats” of the world have long inspired the wonderment of all people. There is something awe-inspiring about these “cats” to whom we would be but another possible meal. Where I live all the Big Cats are gone now but there are stories about still of Catamounts that prowled the mountains and of “stange yellow dogs” that could steal children from their play. If you are a lover of cats, wildlife, or world coins then this wonderful coin would be a great addition to your world coin collection. Issued under authority of the Government of Sierra Leone in 2001, this One Dollar legal tender crown-sized (38.6mm) coin features the Cougar on its reverse.
