Obverse

The obverse of the 2018 Australian Mother & Baby Koala Silver Coin displays the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This fourth-generation design by Ian Rank-Broadley has been featured on numerous Commonwealth coins since 1998. It shows the Queen with a regal tiara, along with inscriptions denoting the coins value and the issuing nation, Australia.

Reverse

On the reverse side, the 2018 10 oz Mother & Baby Koala Silver Coin features a heartwarming scene of a koala mother climbing a eucalyptus tree with her joey clinging to her back. The Perth Mints P mint mark appears near the bottom, indicating the coins origin. This design by Aleysha Howarth captures the natural habitat of the koalas in stunning detail.

History

The 2018 10 oz Australian Mother & Baby Koala Silver Coin is the debut release in the Next Generation Series and the first 10 oz coin in this collection. The term piedfort refers to coins that are significantly thicker and heavier than standard coins of the same diameter, making this coin a unique addition to any collection.
