In 2020, Australia introduced a distinctive platinum coin with a face value of 30 Dollars, struck from one third of an ounce of 0.9995 fine platinum. This Brilliant Uncirculated piece stands out for its unusual weight and its celebration of marine life, offering a fascinating subject for those who appreciate modern minting artistry. The reverse of the coin captures the energy of the ocean, depicting an Australian striped marlin as it breaches the water. The design showcases the fish in a powerful upward leap, surrounded by stylized waves. Inscriptions on this side confirm the coin's identity and purity, reading "AUSTRALIAN STRIPED MARLIN" alongside "1/3oz 9995 Pt." On the obverse, the coin features the classic likeness of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley.

Produced by the Perth Mint, this coin brings together precise metal purity and a vivid tribute to the natural world.
