The Australian Quokka Coin Series is the latest from the Perth Mint to showcase a unique, endemic species to the Australian continent. In the case of the quokka, this marsupial is one that many Australians have become increasingly familiar with in the social media age as it lacks a fear of humans and often appears in selfies posted on social media sites. Provident Metals now happily offers the 2021 Proof Colorized Australian Quokka 1 oz Silver Coin to you for purchase online.
Highlights:
When you purchase the 2021 Proof Colorized Australian Quokka 1 oz Silver Coin from Provident Metals, you receive a coin with stunning packaging. The Perth Mint houses the coins individually inside of black presentation cases with a clear lid. The clear lid features the Perth Mint logo in the lower left and ships with the reverse design element on display. The coin and its case come inside of an illustrated shipper that depicts the beach and lighthouse from the reverse design in a photographic display. Each one of the coins comes with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity from the Perth Mint.
Obverse
Queen Elizabeth II is depicted on the obverse side of 2021 Proof Colorized Australian Quokka 1 oz Silver Coins. The right-profile portrait of Her Majesty was created in July 2015 by Jody Clark for the Royal Mint of England and it debuted on Australian coins in 2018. The portrait of the Queen includes the George IV State Diadem Crown upon the Queens head and comes with inscriptions of Elizabeth II, Australia, 1 oz 9999 Ag, 2021, and 1 Dollar.
Reverse
A lovable quokka is found in the reverse design of the 2021 Proof Colorized Australian Quokka Silver Coin. The quokka is a wallaby in the marsupial species and is the only member of its genus, the Setonix. The quokka is roughly the size of a house cat and live primarily on the islands off Western Australias coast. In particular, significant populations are found on Rottnest Island and Bald Island. The scene here shows the colorized quokka with a leaf in its paws and a lighthouse on the shoreline in the distance. The inscriptions on this face include Quokka and the P mint mark of the Perth Mint.
History
The Quokka Series is one of the latest from the Perth Mint. The first release of the Quokka design featured here came in 2020 on the reverse of a silver bullion coin with a limited mintage of 30,000 coins. This is the first colorized proof release and uses the same design element.
