Product Description

In 2011, the Perth Mint introduced the Australian Platinum Platypus Series to celebrate the unique wildlife of Australia. This series ran until 2018 and highlighted the platypus, an unusual and fascinating mammal found in the waterways of eastern Australia. Right now, 2015 1 oz Australian Platinum Platypus Coins are available from BGASC.

Highlights:

  • Arrives in protective plastic!
  • 5th issue in the Platinum Platypus Series!
  • Declared mintage of only 12,420 coins!
  • Contains 1 Troy oz of .9995 pure platinum in BU condition.
  • Bears a face value of $100 (AUD) backed by the government of Australia.
  • The obverse side features Queen Elizabeth II.
  • On the reverse is a platypus swimming underwater.

Each 2015 1 oz Australian Platinum Platypus Coin in this listing is in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and packaged in protective plastic. The Platinum Platypus Series launched in 2011 with a maximum mintage of 30,000 coins for its debut release. By 2015, the series was in its fifth year, and this release featured a lower mintage of 12,420 coins.

Obverse

The obverse of the 2015 Australian Platinum Platypus Coin features a right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This design, created by Ian Rank-Broadley in 1998, shows the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara and was used as the fourth-generation effigy across Commonwealth coinage.

Reverse

On the reverse, the 2015 1 oz Platinum Platypus Coin showcases a platypus swimming beneath the waters surface. This design was consistent across all releases in the series and celebrates the importance of the platypuss natural habitat. Clean waterways are vital for these animals to thrive, providing the food and shelter they need.

History

The platypus is one of natures most extraordinary creatures. This semi-aquatic mammal has a duck-like bill, webbed feet, and a flat, paddle-like tail. Known for laying eggs instead of giving live birth, the platypus uses its sensitive bill to detect prey in murky waters.
