Description
The fourth coin in the Polar Babies series features the fluffy harp seal.
Harp seal pups are famous for their bright, snowy white coats, which help them to blend into their surroundings, hiding them from predators and keeping them warm. When the pups reach three weeks of age, their fluffy white coat starts to moult, revealing a darker, silvery grey coloured fur.
