Next in the Series: 2026 Australian Native Bees – Stingless Bee 1oz Silver Proof Hologram Coin Launches 24 October
After the overwhelming success of the first release in our Australian Native Bees series — the 2025 Australian Native Bees – Blue-banded Bee 1oz Silver Proof Hologram Coin — we’ve been truly blown away by the response from collectors around the world.
The Blue-banded Bee coin sold out within the first day of its release, and since then, our inbox has been full of messages asking two questions:
-
“Will there be more in stock?”
-
“When is the next release?”
While the Blue-banded Bee is now completely sold out, we’re thrilled to officially announce the next chapter in this popular series:
Introducing the 2026 Australian Native Bees – Stingless Bee 1oz Silver Proof Hologram Coin
The Coin Company is proud to present the second release in the Australian Native Bees series — a stunning tribute to one of Australia’s most fascinating and vital pollinators: the Stingless Bee.
Struck from .999 fine silver, this limited-edition 1oz coin celebrates the gentle, hive-dwelling species found in the tropical and subtropical regions of northern and eastern Australia. More than just pollinators, stingless bees also produce a unique, rich bush honey — known as sugarbag honey — cherished by Indigenous Australians for centuries.
Each coin features a spectacular holographic design, beautifully capturing the delicate elegance of these small but mighty pollinators. The obverse bears the effigy of King Charles III, along with the year-date and monetary denomination.
With only 1,000 coins to be released worldwide, this collectible is set to be one of the most sought-after releases of the year.
