This impressive Wedge-tailed Eagle coin was struck in brilliant High Relief of five ounces of 99,9% pure silver and is dedicated to Australia's largest bird of prey, the wedge-tailed eagle. These majestic birds of prey are able to fly for hours through the sky and they often reach heights of up to 2,000 meters. While the heat of the day, they use hot thermal air currents that rise up from the ground to reach those dizzying heights. The motive depicts a mother wedge-tailed eagle looking down at her young chick and in the background another Wedge-Tailed Eagle. The coin’s obverse depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination. It's the third wedge-tailed eagle design for the Perth Mint by the popular sculptor and engraver John M. Mercanti. The coin is delivered in the original box including a numbered certificate.
