BULLION BARS AND COINS
Like kangaroos and kookaburras, koalas are a favourite animal symbol of Australia for millions of people around the world.
In 2007, when preparing a new Australian entrant to the international silver bullion coin market, the koala was the obvious design theme for The Perth Mint to choose.
The Australia Koala is now a well-established and sought-after option for silver investors. Offered in 1 kilo, 10oz, 1oz and 1/2oz sizes each year, it has attracted considerable interest as recent sales and mintage figures confirm.
The 2012 Australian Koala is scheduled to become available for purchase on our bullion website and through our worldwide dealer network on 3 January.
The annual silver Koala is also a pleasing collectable. For this reason, 1oz releases can be acquired in illustrated packaging. The 2012 1oz Australian Koala collectable version will be available through our numismatic website and dealer network on the same date.
Australian Koala silver coins have evolved to the present stylish incarnation as the following table portrays.
