Description
The Perth Mint has released the beautifully crafted 5oz Silver Proof Double Gilded Coin celebrating the Australian Outback.
Australia's vast and rugged outback is a land of awe-inspiring natural beauty, steeped in rich history and cultural significance.
The continent spans a staggering 7.68 million square kilometres, an area comprising deep canyons, arid desert, lush rainforests, and stunning coastlines. Australia is home to between 600,000 and 700,000 species of wildlife, many of which are found only in Australia, making the Australian outback one of the world's most precious natural treasures.
The coin’s reverse depicts a scene of kangaroos bounding across the rugged Australian terrain, set against the backdrop of a vivid sunset illuminating across the horizon. The sun is gilded in radiant gold, while the sky and outer rim are gilded in stunning 22-carat pink gold.
The outer rim is adorned with illustrations of native Australian fauna and rose gold gilding.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 500 of the 2026 Wonders of Australia - The Outback Kangaroo 5oz Silver Double Gilded Proof Coin.
Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin comes in a FSC accredited timber veneer display case and an illustrated shipper.
