{{/presale}}The Australian Koala Series from the Perth Mint is a treasured collection of bullion coins, introduced in 2007 with silver coins showcasing unique annual designs of the koala. The series has since expanded to include gold and platinum coins, making it a versatile choice for collectors. Right now, 2024 1/10 oz Australian Platinum Koala Coins are available from BGASC.
Highlights:
Each 2024 1/10 oz Australian Platinum Koala Coin is housed in a protective plastic capsule to ensure its Brilliant Uncirculated condition remains intact. With only 15,000 coins minted by the Perth Mint, this piece is a limited and appealing option for platinum investors and coin collectors. Ing Ing Jong, a talented Perth Mint artist, designed the coin’s reverse.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2024 Australian Platinum Koala Coin includes the first effigy of King Charles III created for Australian coins. Designed by Dan Thorne, this left-profile image of the King captures him without a crown and represents the first major update to Australian coinage portraits in decades.
Reverse
On the reverse, the 2024 Platinum Koala design showcases a koala climbing the trunk of a gum tree. The koalas pose, with its head turned over its shoulder, and the detailed background bring this scene to life.
History
Koalas are fascinating creatures with a history that stretches back millions of years. Fossil records show that koala-like marsupials existed during the Oligocene epoch. Although there were once several species, todays koala is the last surviving member of its lineage and a symbol of Australia.
