Struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality, each coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965. This is the first star shaped coin issued as Australian legal tender.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 3,000 of the 2015 Christmas 1oz Silver Star Shaped Coin.
The star shaped coin’s reverse features a snow covered Christmas tree in colour with a shining star on top against a backdrop of a forest. The inscription MERRY CHRISTMAS and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark also feature in the design. The coin's obverse depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the monetary denomination, and the 2015 year-date.
Each coin is housed in a special star-shaped capsule with a hole for a ribbon to be tied, so the coin can be hung as a Christmas tree decoration. Presented in a delightful gift card, this coin is the perfect festive gift.
