As a tangible, long-term store of value in tough economic times, it has never been more important to invest in precious metals. Provident Metals carries a variety of bullion coins from the world renowned Perth Mint, including the 2013 10 Ounce Australian Silver Koala.
Composed of .999 pure silver, the 10 Oz Silver Koala is one of the most popular coins produced by the Perth Mint. With designs changing annually, the reverse of each 2013 Australian Koala bears the detailed image of the beloved koala sitting in a tree. It is inscribed with the words AUSTRALIAN KOALA, 2013, 999 SILVER, the mint mark P and the coin’s size.
The obverse of each 2013 10 Oz Silver Koala features the iconic image of Queen Elizabeth II by acclaimed artist, Ian-Rank Broadley. It is inscribed with the words ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA and 10 DOLLARS.
The Perth Mint was established in 1899 when gold was discovered in Australian deposits. The mint struck gold and silver sovereigns until Great Britain abandoned the gold standard in 1931. It remained under British authority until 1970, when it ceded to the government of Western Australia. Silver Koalas were introduced by the Perth Mint in 2007, and are considered legal tender by the Currency Act of 1965.
Backed and guaranteed by the government of Australia, 2013 10 Ounce Silver Koalas are a fantastic addition to any investment portfolio–while making thoughtful gifts and prized collector’s items as well.

"Heck I like anything Australia. But when I purchased this bullion I was buying for the weight not necessarily the art work...in the picture the Koala artwork looks a little strange regarding how the Koala is portrayed. In hand, this coin is beautiful to hold, the weight seems to be more than 10 OZ based on the shear size of the coin. The Koala is very well done....really like this coin and will plan on buying more in the future."
