Australian Wildlife: Icons of the Natural World
Butterfly – 2026 2oz Silver Antiqued Colored Coin

Celebrate the enchanting beauty of the Ulysses butterfly with this exquisitely crafted 2oz Silver Antiqued Colored Coin. Known as the blue emperor or blue mountain swallowtail, this magnificent species — native to the tropical regions of Australia, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, and the Solomon Islands — is famed for its vivid, electric-blue wings that shimmer with iridescence.
The colored reverse features a magnificent Ulysses butterfly at its center. Three smaller butterflies accompany it in flight. Vibrant native flora surrounds them, including the golden blooms of goodenia and the delicate pink blossoms of Euodia. Struck design elements include the Cape York lily and the graceful bower of beauty species.
Moreover, each coin carries an individual ‘antiqued’ finish. This conveys the surface character of an ancient artefact. Therefore, no two coins in the mintage are exactly alike. Jennifer McKenna designed the reverse, while Dan Thorne created the obverse. Browse all insect coins in our collection.
Turtle Yaunati – 2026 2oz Silver Antiqued Colored Coin

Award-winning Indigenous artist Chern’ee Sutton collaborated on the Turtle Yaunati coin. It celebrates the profound spiritual and cultural significance of turtles in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. These powerful totems link to creation, wisdom, longevity, and deep connections to land and sea. Explore our full range of turtle coins for more designs celebrating these magnificent animals.
The richly coloured reverse depicts several turtles. Symbols of their journey through time and Country surround them. Circles represent water holes and the ocean. The trail of turtles evokes ocean migration currents. Jellyfish represent their primary food source. Furthermore, a trail of eggs in the sand denotes the turtle’s return to its birthplace to begin the next cycle of renewal. Like the Butterfly coin, each piece carries an individual antiqued finish for a one-of-a-kind look.
Australian Koala – 2026 1oz Gold Proof High Relief Coin

The Perth Mint’s signature Koala series reaches new heights with this stunning 1oz Gold Proof High Relief Coin. Ing Ing Jong designed the reverse. It portrays a koala perched in a eucalyptus tree. The animal holds a leafy branch in its mouth amid native foliage. The mint strikes both the high relief reverse and obverse on concave surfaces. This achieves the optimum flow of metal, resulting in extraordinary depth and detail.
With a maximum mintage of just 200, this ranks among the most exclusive pieces in the July lineup. It stands as a true collector’s statement in pure gold.
Wonders of Australia – 2026 5oz Silver Proof Double Gilded Coin

This beautifully crafted 5oz Silver Proof Double Gilded Coin celebrates the awe-inspiring Australian Outback.
