The Australian Wedge Tailed Eagle Silver Coin is one of the few coins in the precious metals industry that alters its reverse designs annually. Initially, John Mercanti’s designs were repeated in this series, with the 2014 and 2015 issues sharing a reverse design, and the 2016-2017 coins sharing a different design.
For the obverse field of the 2018 1 oz Wedge Tailed Eagle Silver Coin, you will be pleased to find the legendary effigy of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, along with the inscriptions: ELIZABETH II” – the name of the Queen, “Australia”- the issuing country, “2018”- the year of issue, “1 DOLLAR” – the face value. She is depicted as an aged monarch with a glorious crown in side profile view.
For the reverse field of the 2018 Australian Wedge Tailed Eagle Silver Coin, you will be excited to discover the new John Mercanti image. It showcases a bird in the sky, spreading out its wings gloriously as it flies towards another Wedge Tailed eagle in a nest, feeding a young bird. This is a family of Australian Wedge Tailed Eagles high in the mountains, their natural habitat.
These 2018 1 oz Australian Wedge Tailed Eagle Silver Coins are perfect specimens. Mint State 70 coins showcase full, original mint luster and have no detracting flaws of any kind.
