Silver Koala Coin Series
Australia's Perth Mint introduced the Gold and Silver Koala series in 2007. Each year has featured a unique design of this animal that is associated with Australia. Australian Silver Koala coins are produced in both 1 oz silver and 1 kilogram size, with the mintage of the 1 oz size capped at just 300,000 coins. This makes the Australian Silver Koala one of the most collectible bullion coin series. The Koala, along with the Kookaburra, Lunar Series and Kangaroo, form what has continued to be a world renowned line of high quality bullion products from The Perth Mint.

About Koalas
Early European settlers initially confused these new tree-climbing animals with monkeys or bears, which is why some people still refer to the creatures as koala bears. However, koalas are actually marsupials like kangaroos and wombats. These cuddly marsupials have special physical characteristics that help their tree-dwelling lifestyle. Koalas are able to grab branches and pick eucalyptus leaves with their two opposable digits, and their tough skin and sharp claws provide traction in climbing. They even have extra thick fur on their bottoms so that they can comfortably sit on branches for hours at a time. Unique to Australia, these animals are a perfect theme for an iconic coin series.

The Perth Mint
The Perth Mint is Australia's oldest operating mint and its name has become synonymous with some of the highest standard of precious metal bullion and collectible products. Along with the kookaburra, some of The Perth Mint's most well-known coin programs include the Gold Kangaroo and Silver Kangaroo, Koala, Gold Lunar and Silver Lunar, and Gold Swan and Silver Swan programs along with a wide variety of specialty bullion releases.
