Proof Australian Koala 1 Kilo Silver Coins are the largest specimens available in the collectible range of Australian Koalas. The series is one of the latest from the Perth Mint in its annual-release native species designs, having been introduced in 2007. It remains a popular coin alongside the Australian Kookaburra and Australian Kangaroo silver issues from the mint and features new images on the reverse each year. Today, you have the opportunity to get Proof Australian Koala 1 Kilo Silver Coins online at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
The Australian Koala silver bullion series released in 2007 and, like other silver bullion coins from Perth, has just a few weight options for investors. However, when it comes to the proof coins the mint has issued in this series to date, the variety of weights has been impressive. Each year has different weights in many cases, with options to date that have included 10 oz high relief proofs, 5 oz proofs, 1 Kilo proofs, and fractional-ounce sets down as low as 1/10 oz of silver.
Obverse
On the obverse side of Proof Australian Koala 1 Kilo Silver Coins is an image of Queen Elizabeth II. This fifth-generation Australian design was created for the Royal Mint of England in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley. It was adopted for Australian coins in 1999 and was in use through 2017 on most coin collections. It depicts the Queen in right-profile relief with the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. Inscriptions on this face remain the same and read Elizabeth II, Australia, and 30 Dollars.
Reverse
The reverse face of the Proof Australian Koala 1 Kilo Silver Coins includes various images of the koala. These cuddly-looking marsupials are more than capable of defending themselves with razor-sharp claws that are typically used to climb and cling to eucalyptus trees. The Perth Mint features a new image of the koala on this side each year. Inscriptions include the individual date mark, Australian Koala, and 1 Kilo 999 Silver. There is also a P mint mark from the Perth Mint.
History
Most Proof Australian Koala 1 Kilo Silver coins were issued between 2012 and 2017 in this series. The maximum mintage each year was 500 coins, but the 2012 was the only release close to hitting its max at a total of 471 coins sold.
