2013 The Land Down Under - Didgeridoo 1oz Silver Proof Coin
Description
The iconic didgeridoo is featured on the second 1oz silver coin release. The didgeridoo is a wind instrument sometimes described as a wooden trumpet or pipe. It was first used by Indigenous Australians in ancient times, although the exact age of the instrument is not documented. Modern didgeridoos are usually cylindrical or conical, and generally, the longer the instrument, the lower the pitch or key.
The silver coin’s reverse depicts a colourful outback scene of mountains and sunset, with an Indigenous Australian playing the didgeridoo, framed within a map shape of Australia
