The Coin Company is proud to present Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle 2021 2oz Silver Reverse Proof Ultra High Relief Piedfort Coin, produced by the Perth Mint.

Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the wedge-tailed eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the biggest eagles in the world. Found throughout mainland Australia, Tasmania and southern Papua New Guinea, the bird has an impressive wingspan of up to 2.7 metres.

Sculpted for The Perth Mint by the renowned US engraver, John M. Mercanti, the coin’s ultra high relief reverse depicts a swooping wedge-tailed eagle with a snake in its talons. As well as the inscription AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ Mintmark, the reverse also includes the coin’s weight, fineness and its 2021 year-date.

The coin’s obverse depicts the Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination.
