Buy 2018 Australian Perth Mint Koala Silver Coins Online

Perth Mint has switched to the use of 0.9999 pure silver for the very first time in the Koala Silver Coin program with these 2018 1 oz Koala Silver Coins. With this purity addition, the series’ popularity and demand will certainly touch new highs.

This series of coins with annually changing reverse designs is focused on Australia’s famous marsupial – the Koala. Although these animals are sometimes referred to as ‘bears,’ they are not bears at all. Instead, they are pouched mammals, much like the Kangaroo.

Each of these coins contains 1 troy ounce of 0.9999 pure silver. Moreover, they carry $1 (AUD) face values – guaranteed by the Australian government, which recognizes these coins as legal tender.

An adorable koala is depicted on the reverses of these coins, sitting on a Eucalyptus branch surrounded by gum leaves. This portrayal is surrounded by the words ‘Australian Koala,’ weight and purity of silver in the coin, and the year of issue ‘2018.’

On the other hand, the ‘IRB’ legend underneath Queen Elizabeth II’s right-profile effigy honors the creator – Ian Rank-Broadley. In fact, this design is not only well known, it is also featured on all Australian legal tender coinage.

These 2018 1 oz Australian Koala Silver Coins from Perth Mint have a mintage limited to just 300,000 coins. Hence, collectors who want to keep their collections up-to-date with Perth Mint’s latest offerings should grab these as soon as possible. Furthermore, the silver purity bump to 99.99% will attract investors who want to add pure silver to their precious metals portfolios as well.
