Description

Commemorating the 75th Anniversary of the death of the last known Tasmanian Tiger. With a large, wolf-like head, tiger-like striped coat and wombat-like backwards-facing pouch, the Thylacinus cynocephalus (Tasmanian Tiger) is among the most intriguing elements of Australia’s great variety of exotic native fauna. Rivalling in reputation such wonders of nature as the platypus, kangaroo and koala, this unusual creature virtually disappeared from the Australian mainland around 2,000 to 3,000 years ago.

This 1oz silver Proof Dollar coin is the first of a new series and is sure to be a sell out!
Each coin is housed in a high gloss wooden case, accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. This coin has a limited mintage of 5,000 coins.
