The Royal Australian Mint is proud to launch its new series, Beauty, Rich and Rare, with this unique gold coloured proof domed coin.
Featuring the remarkable Great Barrier Reef, the coin is a nod to one of Australia’s most loved natural wonders.
Australia’s Great Barrier Reef attracts visitors and scientists from around the world, such is its beauty and significance. The Royal Australian Mint’s new series, ‘Beauty, Rich and Rare’ seeks to capture this natural wonder in these unique, coloured and dome-shaped coins.
Stretching from the northern tip of Queensland nearly as far south as Bundaberg, the Great Barrier Reef is a wonder of epic proportions. Not only are its turquoise waters a thing of beauty, but its environmental significance cannot be underestimated. Home to more than 600 types of coral, more than 1600 species of fish and 133 varieties of sharks and rays, the reef is a truly diverse ecosystem.
