Story

Soaring eagle

Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the Australian wedge-tailed eagle has a wingspan of more than 2.5 metres. With the ability to fly tirelessly for many hours, it’s known to reach altitudes of 2,000 metres and beyond on thermal air currents rising from Australia’s sun-baked terrain.

Ultra high relief

Created by eminent US numismatic sculptor John M. Mercanti, the coin features a polished representation of a wedge tailed eagle with outstretched wings. Standing especially proud of the coin’s table, the image exhibits the exceptional crispness and clarity of our ultra high relief standard. Also included on the coin’s reverse is The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
