Buy Australian Koala Silver Coins at BOLD Precious Metals

In 2007, the Perth Mint released its second annual silver bullion coin, the Australian silver Koala. The silver Koala showcases fresh reverse designs of the beloved marsupial while honoring the Perth Mint's long-standing tradition of featuring Australia's native wildlife in their coin collections. This unique addition to the Perth Mint's offerings continues to captivate collectors and investors with its stunning imagery and exceptional quality.

History of Koala Silver Coins

The Perth Mint in Australia releases the silver Koala coin annually, featuring a unique design of the beloved marsupial on each new release. This makes the coin coveted by investors and numismatic enthusiasts. Despite being manufactured in limited quantities, the silver Koala coin is available in various sizes, ranging from 1/2 oz to 1 kg. The success of the silver Koala coin series follows in the footsteps of the silver Kookaburra series, which was launched in 1990 and also featured annual design updates.

Details of the Australian Koala Series

The Australian Silver Koala was launched by the Perth Mint in 2007 with a 1 oz silver coin. In the following year, the series expanded to include 1/2 oz, 10 oz, and 1 Kilo silver coins and continued with these four weights until 2015. The series also offered a mint-to-order mintage program, ensuring production until the following year's design was ready for release. 

In 2016, the series was reduced to only 1 oz and 1 Kilo silver coins, with a mintage cap of 300,000 coins for the 1 oz option. The series also changed silver purity and design, upgrading to .9999 pure silver in 2018 and a new effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark in 2020. Each year, the reverse field features a new Koala design, making the Australian silver Koala a beloved series among collectors and investors.

Its captivating designs and superior-quality finishes have earned it recognition in the global coin market. This silver coin is legal tender in Australia and carries a face value of one Australian dollar.

Investment Value of Koala Silver Coins

The value of a silver Koala coin depends on the coin’s weight and demand in the market. The Australian government backs each coin, representing a legal tender value of $30, which may be higher than the current spot price for silver.

With the fluctuating spot prices of silver, the value of a silver Koala coin varies depending on its state and authorization. Coins range in price from $30 to $1000, with certification for coins. Collectors may hold onto silver Koala coins for their bullion portfolio or as part of their coin collection, while others invest in them, anticipating their value will increase over time.

However, it is significant to note that the coin market is distinct from the silver spot market. As a result, the value of a silver Koala coin may fluctuate independently of the spot price for silver. Ultimately, the coin’s rarity may increase as it ages, making it a valuable addition to any investment portfolio or coin collection.
