2013 Australia 1 oz Silver Megafauna Procoptodon Proof
2013 Australia 1 oz Silver Megafauna Procoptodon Proof
During the Pleistocene epoch, Australia was home to remarkable giant creatures, including the largest kangaroo ever known to exist. This colossal, heavily built marsupial is celebrated on a beautifully struck silver coin from 2013, which brings the prehistoric giant back to life through detailed artistry. The reverse side of this legal tender release showcases the extinct Procoptodon in a dynamic pose. Alongside the depiction of this ancient creature, the reverse features the inscription PROCOPTODON, the P mint mark representing the Perth Mint, and details confirming the weight of one ounce and the 0.999 silver purity. On the obverse, the classic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by artist Ian Rank-Broadley is displayed, surrounded by the inscriptions denoting the year 2013, the country of origin, and the face value of 1 Dollar. This coin was issued with a limited mintage of 6,500 pieces, making it a fascinating subject for anyone intrigued by paleontology and the lost giants of the natural world.
