No creature has captured the imagination of the American public more then the legendary Bigfoot, and this is best Bigfoot coin (by far) that we've ever seen! Bigfoot, or Sasquatch, is a large, hairy, human-like creature believed to inhabit forests in North America, particularly the Pacific Northwest. Bigfoot is featured in both American and Canadian folklore. He (it?) became an enduring icon in popular culture after a man created plaster casts of huge footprints he discovered in 1958. What an outstanding design! On a moonlit night, Bigfoot stalks through the trees, a ridiculously powerful presence that demands attention—if you can find him! (Good luck, he's one wily SOB). Bigfoot himself is wonderfully detailed, with his gruff face, brow ridge and that shaggy coat—you can almost smell the stink coming off of him. Bigfoot is the epic mythical creature, whose legend has grown to epic, mythical proportions, so claim this epic Bigfoot Silver Proof for yourself today. A word of warning, there's only 750 for the entire world, which we deem far too few. Much like the evasive Big Foot vanishing back into the forest, this numismatic treasure is sure to vanish into intrepid collectors’ hands quickly, so make sure you are one of them! Tremendously low mintage, just 750—don't delay, make this epic Bigfoot yours today! Bigfoot: The (Ape-)Man, The Legend A mighty ape-man has haunted the forests of the Pacific Northwest for hundreds of years. In the wilds of British Columbia and the Yukon he is known as Sasquatch. In central Asia, he’s called the Yeti or Abominable Snow Man. But across most of North America, he is called simply "Bigfoot". Little is known of his natural history, except that he's exceedingly strong, exceedingly hairy, and always accompanied by a tremendously funky stench! Is Bigfoot just a myth? Many people claim to have seen him or his massive footprints. Some say he stands more than ten feet tall. His size is very close to that of a grizzly bear standing on its hind legs, so could Sasquatch really be a case of mistaken identity? You can decide with this truly stunning, one troy ounce pure silver coin with full color and a cameo frosted proof finish. Myth...or Missing Link? Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, is purportedly an ape-like cryptid that inhabits forests, mainly in the Pacific Northwest of North America. Bigfoot is usually described as a large, hairy, bipedal humanoid with a strong odor. The term "Sasquatch" is an anglicized derivative of the word "Sésquac" which means "wild man" in a Salish Native American language. Bigfoot is described in reports as ranging between 6–10 feet tall, weighing in excess of 500 pounds, and covered in dark brown or dark reddish hair. Alleged witnesses have described large eyes, a pronounced brow ridge, and a large, low-set forehead; the top of the head has been described as rounded and crested, similar to the sagittal crest of the male gorilla. Bigfoot is commonly reported to have a strong, unpleasant smell by those who claim to have encountered it. The enormous footprints for which it is named have been as large as 24 inches long and 8 inches wide. While most casts have five toes (like all known apes), some casts of alleged Bigfoot tracks have had numbers ranging from two to six. Scientists discount the existence of Bigfoot and consider it to be a combination of folklore, misidentification, and hoax, rather than a living animal, in part because of the large numbers thought necessary to maintain a breeding population. A few scientists such as Jane Goodall and Jeffrey Meldrum have expressed interest and possible belief in the creature. Bigfoot remains one of the more famous examples of a cryptid within cryptozoology and an epic, enduring legend. Obverse On a moonlit night, Bigfoot stalks through the trees, a ridiculously powerful presence that demands attention.
