Each of the 2017 1 oz Australian Silver Koala Rooster Privy Coins available here comes with a protective plastic flip. The coins in this listing were issued in 2017 and feature both the unique 2017 Silver Koala design and a privy mark to celebrate the Year of the Rooster.

Silver Koala Coins, like the Silver Kookaburra and other programs at Perth Mint, come with a new reverse design each year. In 2017, Perth made available a small number of Silver Koalas with a Year of the Rooster privy mark.

Queen Elizabeth II is on the obverse side of 2017 Australian Silver Koala Rooster Privy Coins. This design shows Elizabeth II in right-profile relief in a 1998 design from Ian Rank-Broadley. In this portrait, Her Majesty is shown wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.

A koala is featured in the reverse design of the 2017 1 oz Silver Koala Rooster Privy Coins. This year’s design shows a koala seated on the ground near the trunk of a tree with mountains silhouetted in the distance. Within the design field, you will find a small, circular privy mark with a rooster in left-profile relief.
