2022 Silver 5 oz Australia Perth Koala High Relief Rose-Gilded Proof
Perth Mint's Australian Koala series was first introduced to the public in 2007. That inaugural release was an immediate global success. The popularity of the series has only grown from there. Of course, one of the primary reasons for the sustained interest is the featured subject! Who could possibly resist these gentle, adorable animals? Along with the kangaroo, and kookaburra, the koala is recognized worldwide as an iconic example of Australian wildlife. With each release, a uniquely new koala scene is featured, and this 2022 Silver 5 oz Australia Perth Koala High Relief Rose-Gilded Proof is a wonderful example!
