Sandkronars are a species of flat, burrowing sea urchins that are also sometimes called sand cakes, cake urchins, sea cookies, or pansy shells. They are small in size, averaging from three to four inches and have a rigid skeleton called a ''test''. The test consists of calcium carbonate plates arranged in a fivefolds symmetric pattern. Some species have slits called lunules that can help them stay embedded in the sand instead of being swept away by an ocean wave. When living, the test is covered by a skin of velvet-textured spines which are covered with very small hairs. |

The sandkronar is Elanthian name for the sand-dollar.
Sandkronars are a species of flat, burrowing sea urchins that are also sometimes called sand cakes, cake urchins, sea cookies, or pansy shells. They are small in size, averaging from three to four inches and have a rigid skeleton called a test. The test consists of calcium carbonate plates arranged in a fivefolds symmetric pattern. Some species have slits called lunules that can help them stay embedded in the sand instead of being swept away by an ocean wave. When living, the test is covered by a skin of velvet-textured spines which are covered with very small hairs.
Living ones appear in a variety of colors from green, blue, purple, and violet. Dead ones are commonly found with their empty test devoid of surface material and have been bleached white by the sunlight. These tests (skeletons), the color and shape suggested it may be a large, silver coin, thus beachcombers drawn to them gave them their name. Sandkronars are often treated as shells and may sometimes be referred to as other currency denominations, such as sandlirum based on region.
