Story

Much-loved marsupial

The Australian Koala is a sought-after coin series featuring annual designs of the much-loved marsupial. Sleepy and docile, koalas spend most of their time either resting or eating gum leaves among Australia’s eucalyptus forests.

High relief design

Highlighting koala family bonds, the coin’s detailed high relief design portrays a koala climbing a tree branch with a ‘joey’ clinging to its back. Included on the reverse are the inscription ‘KOALA’, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the coin’s weight, purity, and year-date.
