The koala is one of Australia's more enduring natural symbols. Along with the kangaroo, the koala is one of the continents unique marsupial species that cannot be found anywhere else in the world in the wild. Today, the 2017 2 oz Antique Silver Koala Coin is available to you from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Koalas inhabit the length and breadth of the Australian continent, but those found in the northern reaches of Australia are often smaller and have thinner fur coats. Those koalas living on the southern coast are heavier and have denser fur, which is believed to aid them in surviving the cooler winters on Australia's southern coast compared to its northern reaches.
Each of these 2017 2 oz Antique Silver Koala Coins has beautiful antiquing applied to the blank which gives it a worn, ancient look with abrasions and fading. Additionally, these coins are struck under intense pressure in numismatic presses to deliver a high-relief finish that brings added brilliance to the visual appeal of the coin.
On the obverse of the 2017 2 oz Antique Silver Koala coin is the image of Queen Elizabeth II. This particular design is a right-profile portrait from Ian Rank-Broadley, and was created in 1998. The Queen's effigy has appeared on British and commonwealth coinage since 1952.
The reverse of the 2017 2 oz Antique Silver Koala Coin includes the image of a koala as it rests in the branches of a tree. It has a calm, relaxed look on its face as though it already has a belly full of food and is ready to catch some of its 20 hours of daily sleep.
All 2017 2 oz Antique Silver Koala coins have a rimless design that allows all imagery to reach to the very edges of the product. The coins are boxed inside of a Perth Mint black clamshell for protection and display, and arrive inside of koala-themed shippers.
Perth Mint is the oldest operating facility in Australia. Originally founded as part of the Royal Mint, today it operates separate of the younger Royal Australian Mint and is the lone surviving mint from the old Royal Mint system.
