1oz Silver Coin 2024 Wombat - Perth Mint.
We are pleased to present this wonderful 1oz silver bullion coin celebrating an iconic Australian marsupial.
The wombat is a sturdy quadruped found in forested, mountainous and heathland areas of eastern Australia and Tasmania. With powerful limbs and sharp flat claws, it is perfectly built for tunnelling. At up to one meter in length, it is one of the largest burrowing mammals in the world.
Each coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.99% pure silver and issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 25,000 of the Australian Wombat 2024 1oz Silver Bullion Coin in capsule.
The coin portrays a wombat and its ‘joey’. Other design elements include vegetation, gum trees, birds and clouds. As well as the inscription ‘WOMBAT’, the reverse includes a ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary, as well as the coin’s weight, purity, and 2024 year-date.
The coin’s obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III and the monetary denomination. For additional peace of mind, the coin incorporates an authentication feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter. Detectable under a magnifying glass, it is designed to make it significantly more difficult for the coin to be counterfeited.
Perth Mint coins come encased in a hard clear plastic case to help keep coins in pristine condition. Ainslie Bullion recommends leaving these cases un-tampered for the best preservation of value.
