2021 Australia Great Southern Land Mother of Pearl 1oz Silver Proof NGC PF 70 UCAM

Strong, resilient, and iridescent, Mother of Pearl comes from the inner layer of mollusk seashells. It’s the same material of which pearls are composed of and its beauty is unquestioned. Thanks to the opaque and translucent colors that emanate and dance along its surface, it’s long been popular in jewelry for its light-reflecting beauty. Mother of Pearl also makes a fabulous addition to coins — an example of which is this lovely coin from Australia’s world-renowned Perth Mint that features an actual Mother of Pearl insert in the shape of the Australian continent.

Made from genuine Australian Mother of Pearl, this insert is a luminescent outline of Australia floating amid a black display core. To further pay tribute to the unique features of “The Land Down Under,” the insert is surrounded by a series of deigns depicting marine creatures found in Australian waters, including a great white shark, sea turtle, seahorse, blue-ringed octopus, starfish and stingray. Mother of Pearl shell is believed to attract prosperity and is often used to heighten intuition, psychic sensitivity and imagination. It is believed that it provides love and soothing protection from negative forces.

This legal-tender $1 coin was struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver and comes in gorgeous proof condition, meaning it was expertly crafted by the artisans at The Perth Mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields! The glimmering silver creates a dazzling effect as you turn the coin over to catch the light in the Mother of Pearl inert.
