| Additional information |
Diplocaulus was a boomerang-headed amphibian of the Permian, extinct roughly 270 million years ago — long before anything recognizable as a mammal walked the earth. Mongolia has built a consistent niche in the numismatic market issuing fractional gold pieces tied to paleontological subjects, and this 0.5g format follows a formula the Bank of Mongolia has deployed across dozens of natural history themes since the 2010s. The KM#410 reference confirms its place in a catalogued series rather than a one-off release.
