On the front it has queen elizabeth the second's side face, with the words "queen elizabeth the second" posted around her side profile. 1971 is printed on the bottom. But the back is what gets me. No words, just a crown that appears...
I believe it is an interesting kind of coin dear boy. Does it look anything like the coin in the link? I have searched near and far my good man and have seen nothing else to match your description for 1971 so I'll wager it is time to consult the experts at your local coin
Downies Presents the 2011 Tasmanian Tiger Lenticular Coin
Uniquely beautiful, majestically powerful and once abundant, the Thylacine was an animal like no other. Paying tribute to the last of this species, Downies is proud to announce the newest additions to their unwavering range, the 2011 Tasmanian Tiger Lenticular Coins.
Showcasing an eight part moving image of ‘Benjamin’ moving from the back of his cage to the front and opening his massive jaws, the 2011 releases are available in both a $5 .925 Sterling Silver Proof and a $1 Gold-plated Prooflike. Official Niue legal tender issues, the obverse of both coins are distinguished by Ian Rank-Broadley’s portrayal of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Marking the significant event which changed the hierarchy of the Australian animal kingdom forever, the 75th anniversary of ‘Benjamin’ is celebrated. Resembling a short-haired dog with a wolf like head and powerful jaws that could open up to 120 degrees, the Thylacine was given the common name of the ‘Tasmanian Tiger’ due to the distinctive stripe markings throughout its fur.
