Featuring the cute and cuddly Australian Koala, the 2014 high relief design displays brilliant new artistry on this spectacular 1oz coin.
Struck by The Perth Mint from 99.9% pure silver in proof quality, the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
An issue limit of 9,000 applies to the 2014 Australian Koala 1oz Silver Proof High Relief Coins, and will be released in this packaging from a maximum mintage of 10,000.
The coin's reverse depicts a close-up portrait of a koala with a spray of eucalyptus leaves. The design includes the inscription AUSTRALIAN KOALA, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark and the 2014 year-date. The coin's obverse depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and monetary denomination.
The coin’s high relief reverse and obverse are minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.
The coin is housed in a classic grey display case within an illustrated shipper, and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
