Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle 2025 1oz Silver Coloured Coin in Card

The Coin Company is proud to present Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle 2025 1oz Silver Coloured Coin in Card 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. With an impressive wingspan of up to 2.5 metres, it can also be recognised by its powerful legs which are feathered all the way to its feet. With the ability to fly tirelessly for many hours, the majestic wedge-tailed eagle frequently reaches altitudes of 2,000 metres and beyond on thermal air currents rising from Australia's sun-baked terrain.

Sculpted for The Perth Mint by renowned US engraver, John M. Mercanti, the coin's reverse portrays the wedge-tailed eagle with outstretched wings. Reflecting its formidable hunting skills, the artistry highlights the bird's large and superbly effective eyes and a large, hooked beak. As well as the inscription 'AUSTRALIAN WEDGETAILED EAGLE' and The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark, the reverse also includes the coin's weight, fineness and its 2025 year-date.

John M. Mercanti is the 12th Chief Engraver of the US Mint and has produced more coin and medal designs than any other employee in the organisation's history.

Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle 2025 1oz Silver Coloured Coin in Card has a limited mintage of 2,500 coins.
