Detailed description
Gold Two Ounces 2017 Australian Koala
This exclusive High Relief precision gold coin, issued by the Perth Mint in 2017 in Proof quality from the purest 99.99% gold, weighing 2 ounces (62.215g), is dedicated to the koala bear, one of Australia's most famous animals.
The coin displays on its reverse the beautiful motif that was chosen simultaneously for the 2017 Australian Silver Investment Coin "KOALA". An adult koala bear sits at the trunk of a blackthorn (Eucalyptus) tree in the Australian outback. The motif is surrounded by the inscriptions "AUSTRALIAN KOALA", the year of issue ''2017'', and the weight and purity of the metal. The Perth Mint mark "P" and the initials of the artist, Thomas Vaughan, ''TV'' appear on the left side of the coin.
The koala bear is a marsupial, native to Australia. It was named by settlers in the 18th century for its thick silver fur and larger round ears, resembling a bear. Its long, sharp claws and two protruding thumbs allow it to grip branches better. It is one of the few mammals with fingerprints that are very similar to those of humans. The koala is an approximately 10 kg herbivore, feeding almost exclusively on the leaves of the blackthorn tree. Most of the day is spent eating and sleeping.
The face traditionally depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley. Inscriptions ''ELIZABETH II'', ''AUSTRALIA'' and the denomination ''200 DOLLARS'' complete the rim.
The coin comes in a wooden box along with a numbered certificate of authenticity in a limited edition of only 150 pieces for the whole world!
