2015 Australian Koala Silver Coin, 1 oz.

The Australian Koala is a silver coin with an annually changing reverse image.

The coin refers to the extremely complex and interesting world of Australia's wildlife. The protagonist of the series is the koala, a small bag-like creature that is endemic only to Australia. The appearance of koalas is extremely recognizable - they have a rounded face with large, fluffy ears and a distinctive black nose. Their body is covered with soft, dense fur, which is silvery gray on the back and whitish on the belly. The main feature of koalas is their diet; their main food is leaves. In particular, they prefer eucalyptus leaves, which make up about 90% of their daily menu.

On the reverse of the depicted coin we see a small koala clinging to a tree trunk At the very top of the coin is the name of the series - Australian Koala, and below it the year of the coin's minting, its weight and silver sample. The obverse of the coin is, as is standard for the Perth mint, an image of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin is fully legal tender in Australia, its denomination is AUD 1.
