Quokka 2022 1oz .9999 Silver Bullion Coin
Description
Quokka 2022 1oz Silver Bullion Coin
Following the sell-out of the first two Quokka 1oz silver bullion coins, this third release features a superb new artistic impression of the iconic Western Australian marsupial.
Sociable and smiley
Quokkas are wallaby-like marsupials found mainly in the south west region of Western Australia, particularly Rottnest Island, an idyllic location 18 kilometres off the coast near Perth. About the same size of domestic cats, furry quokkas are extremely sociable animals blessed with a cute, smiley and highly photogenic appearance.
Quokkas at a waterhole
The coin portrays two quokkas at a waterhole with nearby Rottnest Island daisies. The design includes the inscription ‘QUOKKA’ and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
The Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II appears on the obverse with the coin’s weight and fineness, monetary denomination and 2022 year-date.
Authentication feature
The coin incorporates an authentication feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter. Detectable under a magnifying glass, it is designed to make it significantly more difficult for the coin to be counterfeited.
Presentation and mintage
Presented in a protective acrylic capsule, the Quokka 2022 1oz Silver Bullion Coin is subject to a limited mintage of just 30,000.
