Tyrannosaurus, Torosaurus and Dilophosaurus on three 2018 «pesos» inscribed «Sint Maarten» form a souvenir fantasy series, not a central bank issue: Sint Maarten has no peso currency; in 2018 it used the Netherlands Antillean guilder and, since 2025, the Caribbean guilder.
One side of each token shows the arms of Sint Maarten with «Sint Maarten» and the date «2018»; the other shows a dinosaur with its Latin name and the marking «1 peso». The three come from different eras and branches: the predatory Dilophosaurus of the Early Jurassic with its paired head crest, Tyrannosaurus, a large predator of the end of the Cretaceous, and the horned Torosaurus, a relative of Triceratops.
Numismatic catalogues classify such pieces as fantasy coins: they are made for thematic collectors and are not legal tender. The set suits a collection of dinosaurs and prehistoric animals or makes an entertaining souvenir from a Caribbean island.
UNC grade: the tokens show no signs of circulation or wear.
For collectors, VPcoins gathers numismatic items from many countries and eras in one catalogue.
