2026 Australia 5 oz Silver Gilded Koala Proof (High Relief)
This striking Australian legal tender release showcases the country's iconic marsupial in a dramatic high-relief format. Struck with a concave surface to enhance the depth of the design, the coin is composed of five troy ounces of 0.9999 fine silver. The visual impact is heightened by selective 22-carat pink gold gilding, which highlights both the central animal subject and the outer border of the coin. The reverse side captures a detailed scene of an adult koala clinging to a eucalyptus tree while grasping a leafy branch. Surrounding the native foliage are the inscriptions detailing the coin's weight, its purity, the year 2026, and the word KOALA, alongside the traditional P mint mark representing the Perth Mint. On the obverse, the effigy of King Charles III, designed by Dan Thorne, is accompanied by the face value of 8 Dollars.
