 Discover Australia is a magnificent collector coin program from the historic Perth Mint. Scheduled for release between 2006 and 2008, the program comprises pure gold, silver and platinum proof coins depicting Australia's amazing fauna, landmarks and flora.
Proof Quality 99.95% Pure Platinum
These 2007-dated coins are struck from 1/2oz and 1/10oz of 99.95% pure platinum in proof quality. (1/2oz denomination used in obverse illustration.)
Flora Theme - Tasmanian Bluegum
The reverse of each coin depicts Tasmanian Bluegum (Eucalyptus globulus) in colour. Proclaimed the floral emblem of Tasmania on 27 November 1962, it was first collected on the south-east coast of the island in 1792-1793 by French botanist Jacques-Julien Houton de Labillardiere. The tall, straight tree bears cream flowers, which produce copious nectar, and leaves covered with a blue-grey, waxy bloom.
Australian Legal Tender
Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coins depict Ian Rank-Broadley's effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse.
Uniquely Australian Packaging
Each coin is housed in a superb presentation case with a lid made from Australian blackbutt timber. The case comes in a protective outer shipper featuring Discover Australia's distinctive logo.
Numbered Certificate of Authenticity
Each coin is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
Limited Mintage
The Perth Mint will release no more than 1,000 1/2oz and 2,500 1/10oz coins worldwide.
