This listing is for one UNC:
BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS
DOLPHIN SERIES 2ND ISSUE
DOLPHIN MOTHER AND BABY WITH CORAL
2005 $1 COPPER-NICKEL COIN UNC The grace and beauty of the form and
movement of the dolphin amazes us, their playful, curious nature charms
us and their built in grin amuses us. Found in virtually all seas
and oceans of the world, there are over 50 species of Dolphin and much
research is being undertaken to find out about these amazing
creatures. The clicking sounds made by these endearing animals is
a form of sonar. Echoes from surrounding objects allow them to
detect obstacles, other animals and matter in the water as their
eyesight is not that good. Dolphins need to be conscious in order
to breath, which means that they do not go into a deep sleep and
studies have shown that they have the ability to let one half of their
brain ‘sleep’ at a time.
