Killer whales, also known as orcas (Orcinus orca), are the largest members of the dolphin family and among the ocean’s most intelligent and powerful predators. These highly social marine mammals live in complex family groups called pods. In 2022, the Perth Mint celebrated the majesty of these massive predators with a silver bullion coin release. Now, 2022 2 oz Australian Killer Whale Silver Coins are available online from JM Bullion.

Coin Highlights:

• Coin arrives inside a protective plastic flip!
• Stunning Killer Whale design!
• Contains 2 Troy oz of .9999 pure silver.
• Issued a face value of $2 (AUD) by Australia.
• Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse.
• Killer whales in the ocean on the reverse.

For the obverse of 2022 2 oz Killer Whale Silver Coins, the mint features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The final effigy of Her Majesty is a right-profile relief that was created in 2015 by Jody Clark. In this design, Elizabeth II is shown at the age of 89 and wears the George IV State Diadem on her head.

In the reverse design of 2022 Australian Killer Whale Coins, Perth Mint offers a depiction of two killer whales swimming through the crisp ocean waters. The killer whale in the foreground is depicted breaking the surface of the water, while the killer whale in the background is shown with only its dorsal fin cresting the surface of the water.

Found in oceans worldwide from the Arctic to the Antarctic, killer whales are apex predators with diverse diets that can include fish, seals, sea lions, and even other whales, depending on their population and location. Their distinctive black and white coloration, large dorsal fins, and remarkable intelligence have made them both feared and revered throughout human history.

These 2022 2 oz Australian Killer Whale Silver Coins are available to you in protective plastic flips. These coins offer a unique design celebrating the Killer Whale species and were struck on 2 oz silver blanks.
