Story

Hungry for growth

Dingo pups venture from their underground den for the first time after about three weeks. Accompanied by their parents, they soon begin to explore further afield, learning how to navigate Australia’s unforgiving landscapes. Less reliant on their mother’s milk by two months old, they’re on their way to becoming Australia's largest carnivorous mammals.
 

Attentive pup design

The coin portrays a dingo sitting with its attentive pup amid wildflowers. The design includes a backdrop of radial lines and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

Authentication feature

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.

Presentation

With a maximum mintage of just 2,500, the Mother and Baby Dingo 2022 10oz Silver Bullion Piedfort Coin is presented in a protective acrylic capsule.
