2023 Aussie Big Things The Giant Koala Stamp and Coin Cover PNC

This postal numismatic cover celebrates Aussie Big Things as part of Collecting Month 2023, and features the Giant Koala $1 coin.

The Giant Koala is located in the western Victorian town of Dadswells Bridge, 20km south-east of Horsham.

Made in 1989 by Dutch sculptor Ben Van Zetten, it is composed of bronze and fibreglass supported by a steel frame.

At 14 by eight metres, this massive structure is more a building than sculpture. Indeed, the interior, accessible through the Koala’s front forearms, houses a souvenir and gift shop.
