About the Megafauna series The Megafauna series by Germania Mint is a journey back to a time when enormous animals dominated icy plains, mountain valleys, and ancient forests. Each release portrays a legendary Ice Age species with exceptional detail, bringing prehistoric nature to life through modern minting craftsmanship. The collection features the Cave Lion, Giant Deer, Woolly Mammoth, Cave Bear, Aurochs, and Woolly Rhinoceros. Together, these silver coins create a cohesive tribute to survival, natural power, and the lost world of prehistoric Earth. The Giant Deer The Giant Deer was one of the largest deer species ever to roam Europe and Asia. Its most striking feature was its enormous antlers, which could reach an extraordinary span and made the animal one of the most recognisable giants of the Pleistocene era. Often called the Irish elk, the Giant Deer was not a true elk but a species of Megaloceros. It inhabited vast prehistoric landscapes for thousands of years and remains a powerful symbol of the scale and beauty of Ice Age wildlife. Coin design The obverse shows the Giant Deer standing in its natural prehistoric environment, surrounded by ancient forest. The dynamic composition highlights the animal’s imposing silhouette and spectacular antlers, capturing the strength and majesty of this vanished species. The reverse features an original Germania Mint design of the Giant Deer’s skull and characteristic antlers, accompanied by a hoofprint. Tracks from other Megafauna species surround the design, linking this release to future coins in the series. The reverse also includes the effigy of the Republic of Liberia and the Germania Mint mark.
