2018 Australian Emu 1 oz .9999 Silver Coin – First Year – Perth Mint

Own the coin that launched one of The Perth Mint’s popular modern wildlife series with this 2018 Australian Emu 1 oz Silver Bullion Coin.

This inaugural Australian Emu release features a beautifully detailed emu walking through its natural Australian landscape. The reverse also includes the inscription “AUSTRALIAN EMU,” The Perth Mint’s distinctive “P” mintmark, the 2018 date and the coin’s weight and purity.

The obverse displays Ian Rank-Broadley’s effigy of Queen Elizabeth II together with the Australian one-dollar denomination.

Struck from one troy ounce of .9999 fine silver, the first-year 2018 Australian Emu had a limited worldwide mintage of only 30,000 coins. Its inaugural-series status and annually changing designs make it especially desirable for collectors assembling a complete Australian Emu collection.
