Australian waters host some of the most famous reef systems in the world.  From spectacular tropical corals to towering forests of kelp, these dynamic environments are teeming with aquatic life.  Celebrating five fascinating reef dwellers, this stunning collector series now includes a release portraying a Clownfish.

 

Proof Quality 99.9% Pure Silver

 

The coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 1/2oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality.

 

Clownsfish Reverse Design

 

The coin’s reverse portrays a Clownfish in colour.  Bright orange with three black-bordered white stripes, this remarkable fish has natural protection from the stinging cells on the waving tentacles of the sea anemone in which it prefers to live.  Growing up to 8cm in length, Clownfish occur in sheltered tropical waters, including the entire length of the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland.

 

‘P’ Mintmark

 

The coin’s reverse also incorporates The Perth Mint’s historic ‘P’ mintmark.

 

Australian Legal Tender

 

Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coin bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the 20 year-date on the obverse.

 

Extremely Limited Mintage

 

No more than 10,000 of these will be released by The Perth Mint.

 

Numbered Certificate of Authenticity

 

Each coin is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
