Obverse

The obverse side of 2020 Australian Quokka Silver Coins features a right-profile bust of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown here in a sixth-generation design for Australian coins that was created in 2015 by Jody Clark for initial use by the Royal Mint of England. The image shows the Queen at the age of 89 with the George IV State Diadem on her head. The inscriptions on this side of the coin include Elizabeth II, Australia, 1 oz 9999 Ag, 2020, and 1 Dollar.

Reverse

On the reverse face of the 2020 Australian Quokka 1 oz Silver Coin is a depiction of the friendly marsupial on a beach. The quokka is about the size of a cat and is shown on a beach here with a bit of foliage in its paws. There is a lighthouse along the shoreline in the distant background and the traditional P mint mark of the Perth Mint. This side includes an inscription of Quokka along the top and has a hidden security element. Under a microscope, you will be able to see a singular letter the Perth Mint has included as a security feature.

History

Quokkas are marsupials like the koala, kangaroo, wallaby, and wombat. The quokka is most closely related within this family to the kangaroo and wallaby. The quokkas live in small ranges within Australia, with most located on islands just off the coast of Western Australia.
