DESCRIPTION

2021 1oz Silver Investment Coin Series - Australian Coat of Arms - FIRST RELEASE IN COAT OF ARMS SERIES 

Struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, this coin is a marvelous addition to The Royal Australian Mint’s legacy of numismatic perfection. It uses parts of the Australian Coat of Arms as separate elements in the overall obverse and reverse designs. The reverse deign depicts an image of a mother kangaroo with a joey in its pouch against a backdrop of thriving vegetation comprising the floral emblems of each Australian state. To the left of the kangaroo is the Commonwealth Star with six points representing Australia’s six states and the seventh point representing Australia’s territories. The coin’s obverse shows an emu hovering over a nest of unhatched eggs against a background of wattle that is yet to blossom. The combination of the two emu and wattle represents potential. The obverse also includes an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II and the Commonwealth Star.
