The Perth Mint issues a wide range of silver bullion coins each year. Many investors are familiar with programs such as the Australian Kookaburra, Australian Koala, and Australian Kangaroo. As those names suggest, the mint is fond of producing silver bullion coinage with images of distinctive native species of Australia. The Perth Mint doesnt stop there though, producing other coins as one-off or smaller programs that take on the same focus on wildlife. Right now, you can buy near-perfect 2015 Australian Funnel-Web Spider 1 oz Silver Coins online at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
With your purchase of the 2015 Australian Funnel-Web Spider 1 oz Silver Coin in this product listing, Provident Metals offers a coin that is in near-perfect condition according to the PCGS. The Mint State 69 certification indicates the coins exhibit full, original mint luster with a maximum of two minor detracting flaws present. Examples of acceptable flaws include only minuscule contact marks or hairlines that must be located outside of the primary focal points of the coin.
Obverse
Queen Elizabeth II is featured on the obverse side of 2015 Australian Funnel-Web Spider Silver Coins. In this design from Ian Rank-Broadley, the Queen is shown in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. This image was created in 1998 for the Royal Mint of England and came to Australian coins one year later in 1999.
Reverse
A funnel-web spider is shown on this side of the 2015 Australian Funnel-Web Spider 1 oz Silver Coin. This design was created as the second in the Perth Mint Wildlife Series and depicts the large spider against a blank background field. Inscriptions on this side of the coin read Australian Funnel-Web Spider, a P mint mark, and 2015 1 oz 999 Silver.
History
The Perth Mint was founded in 1899, just three years before the federation movement in Australia. The mint was intended to operate as a third branch facility of the Royal Mint of England. It would go on to produce British sovereigns for Australia and was eventually sold to the state of Western Australia to operate as a state-owned mint. The Perth Mint Wildlife Series saw these funnel-web designs appear second behind the 2014 saltwater crocodile.
