The Koala bear is indigenous to the outback of Australia. It has been a beloved animal of the country for hundreds of years because of its friendly, innocent interactions with the human race for a long time. Because of their gorgeous appearance, right from their claw-like paws to their wide eyes, has lured visitors to the vibrant country. The Perth Mint capitalizes on its popularity with an amazing silver coin for its large fan base of investors and collectors.
For the obverse field of the 2009 1 oz Australian Silver Koala Coin, one of the most iconic effigies of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II is engraved. This image was forged by Ian Rank Broadley, a famed French-American engraver who portrayed her in a right-profile view. Her legendary, glistening tiara makes an appearance. It was gifted to her by her grandmother, Queen Mary. This image is referred to commonly as the Fourth Portrait because it is the fourth iteration of the queen. The inscriptions include ‘Elizabeth’, ‘Australia’, and ’1 Dollar.’
For the reverse field of the 2009 1 oz Australian Silver Koala Coin, you will be excited to see a radiant design of a koala. The design depicts a beautiful koala crawling on top of a branch. The koala is at peace while it eats its gum leaves. The only inscription found on this side of the coin includes ‘1 oz 999 silver.’
Each coin is .999 fine silver and is delivered packaged in a clear, plastic capsule. It offers security to the product and protection for the coin while it is in transit.
