Welcoming a newborn baby into the world is a time for celebration and joy. Whether it is the first born child or the latest addition to the family, parenthood is a rewarding experience filled with lots of loving memories.
To congratulate and capture the moment forever, The Perth Mint is proud to release a stunning Newborn Baby coin in a stunning gift card. This 1/2oz silver proof coin is dated 2014 for all babies born in the coming year.
This coin is issued as Tuvalu legal tender.
In western folklore, parents have told their children for centuries that babies are delivered by a stork. Flying high above the rooftops the stork is depicted on the coin’s reverse carrying a sleeping newborn baby in a swaddling cloth. The inscription BORN FOR HAPPINESS and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark are also incorporated into the coin’s reverse design.
The Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the 2014-year date, the monetary denomination and coin specifications are shown on the coin’s obverse.
The coin is housed in an elaborate gift card, with room to write the babies details, a family tree and a place to house a photograph.
