2024 Australia Wombat 1 oz Silver Colorized Coin in Card

We are pleased to present this wonderful 1oz silver coin celebrating an iconic Australian marsupial.

A sturdy quadruped found in forested, mountainous and heathland areas of eastern Australia and the island of
Tasmania, the wombat has powerful limbs and sharp flat claws ideally suited for digging. At up to one meter in
length, it is one of the largest burrowing animals in the world.

Like other marsupials, the female wombat has a special pouch in which its offspring completes its development.
In this burrowing species, the pouch opens backwards to avoid smothering the young animal with soil as its
parent tunnels underground.

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 2,500 of this Wombat 2024 1oz Silver Coloured Coin in Card.

The coin portrays a coloured representation of one of Australia’s best known marsupials – the wombat and its ‘joey’ with green vegetation. Other design elements include 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.

Each coin’s reverse includes a security feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter within the design. It
is only detectable under a magnifying glass.

The Wombat 2024 1oz Silver Coloured Coin is presented in a themed presentation card with a fold-out stand
for upright display.
