2024 Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle 10th Anniversary 1oz Gold Proof Coin

This beautifully crafted gold proof high relief coin, designed for The Perth Mint by renowned US designer John M. Mercanti, showcases an Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle.

Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the Wedge-tailed Eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the biggest eagles in the world. With an impressive wingspan of up to 2.5 metres, it can also be recognised from its long, powerful legs which are feathered all the way to its feet.
