2007 $1 Ocean Series White Shark Coloured Uncirculated Coin
The White Shark, also known as the Great White Shark (Carcharodon carcharias), is one of the most well-known and powerful predatory fish in the ocean. Found in coastal and offshore waters of the world's major oceans, this species is distinguished by its robust body, conical snout, and striking white underbelly, which contrasts with its grayish top. Great White Sharks are apex predators, known for their impressive size, with some individuals reaching lengths of over 6 meters (20 feet). They primarily prey on marine mammals, fish, and occasionally seabirds. Despite their fearsome reputation, they are vital to marine ecosystems, helping to maintain the balance of species.
