The Perth Mint proudly presents the Australia 2026 Wonders of Australia - The Outback 99.99% Proof Silver Coin 1oz, an exceptionally prestigious release from the acclaimed Wonders of Australia Series.
Australia’s vast and rugged outback is a landscape of awe-inspiring natural beauty, steeped in rich history and profound cultural significance. Spanning approximately 7.68 million square kilometres, the continent encompasses dramatic canyons, arid deserts, lush rainforests, and breathtaking coastlines. Sanctuary to an estimated 600,000 to 700,000 wildlife species, many of which are entirely unique in Australia, the outback stands as one of the world's most precious natural treasures.
Celebrating this extraordinary biodiversity, the reverse design captures a dynamic tableau of native fauna, depicting a dingo on a rocky vantage point, emus along a riverbed, a coiled snake, a saltwater crocodile emerging from the water, kangaroos traversing the terrain, and a soaring wedge-tailed eagle set against a distant mountain range. The design also includes the year of issue and The Perth Mint’s “P” mintmark. The obverse depicts Dan Thorne’s effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, along with the King’s name “CHARLES III”, the coin’s weight, purity, metal content, face value, and country of issue. The obverse’s outer rim is exquisitely framed by native Australian flora.
Meticulously struck to flawless proof quality, each coin is presented in a premium presentation box, encased within an evocative, outback-themed shipper and accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. With a limited worldwide mintage of 5,000 pieces, this release perfectly merges the prestige of precious metals with the unparalleled grandeur of Australian wildlife.
