With a white belly and a black head, chin, and back, these adorable penguins have distinctive black and white plumage. Their coloration effectively protects them from predators, allowing them to blend in with the bright ice when viewed from below and the dark ocean depths from above.

Standing on the ice shelf by an azure sea, an Emperor Penguin family with offspring is featured on the Royal Australian Mint's new coin series. With regal bearing and distinctive markings, Emperor Penguins are the largest of all penguins, named after naturalist Johann Forster and their big sizes. Endemic to Antarctica, they breed during icy winters, now classified as near threatened due to climate change.

The reverse side of the 2023 Emperor Penguin 1 oz Silver Coin displays a stunning view. An active colony of penguins congregates at the intersection of ice and water. The scene portrays some penguins gracefully plunging into the freezing depths while others observe curiously. This charming portrayal embodies the unity and resilience of these remarkable creatures that inhabit Antarctica. The coin features inscriptions that read EMPEROR PENGUIN and 1 OZ .999 SILVER.
