THE CHAMELEON 2023
SHIFT OF COLOURS: THE CHAMELEON
FIRST EVER 3 OZ SILVER COIN WITH THERMOCHROMIC ENAMEL COLOUR
▶ Colour change in chameleons has functions in camouflage, but most commonly in social signaling and in reactions to temperature.
▶ Through the Thermochromic Effect, the enamel colour changes its hues and brightness once it reaches body temperature.
▶ In contrast, the obverse shows the embossed chameleon alongside the coat of arms of Barbados in Pure Silver.
