Another of the Perth Mint’s perennial bullion core ranges, the Koala debuted in 2007, and remains a popular item today, despite the greatly intensified level of competition with a multitude of low mintage designs. As always, the bullion range is the basis for a myriad of different higher end variants, including proof, gilded, coloured and high-relief. It’s the last of those that we have here today.

Three versions of this pretty design, none at the lower end of the mints numismatic range. The gold variants are 1oz (27.6 mm, 200 mintage) and 2oz (36.6 mm, 100 mintage) in weight, with the solitary silver coin weighing in at 5oz (50.9 mm, 500 mintage). All are nicely presented, particularly the silver in the clear lidded acrylic box. Priced at $4,100, $8,199, and $529 AUD respectively, they’re available from today.
