Beijing International Coin Exposition - Australian Koala with Panda Privy 2024 1oz Silver Coin

The Coin Company is proud to present Beijing International Coin Exposition - Australian Koala with Panda Privy 2024 1oz Silver Coin by The Perth Mint.

This coin celebrates two iconic animals native to Australia and China.

The koala is a very special Australian animal. That the koala “holds the affection of Australians more than any other of their wild animals” was suggested in The Wild Animals of Australasia, a 1926 tome that attributed their unrivalled charm to an “innocent, babyish expression and quiet and inoffensive ways”. Clinging to the trunk of a gum tree, the beloved marsupial in the design features a cherubic face of a forever charming koala.

The panda, characterized by its white coat with black patches around the eyes, ears, legs and shoulders, is a bear species endemic to China. This unique national treasure of China is well-loved worldwide. More than just adorable animals, pandas have played important ambassadorial roles throughout China’s history.

Struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.

Beijing International Coin Exposition - Australian Koala with Panda Privy 2024 1oz Silver Coin has a limited mintage of 3,000 coins.
