Australia is known to be the home for many highly-recognizable mammals including the Koala. This small, grey, bear-like creature takes shelter in the trees and has an insatiable appetite for eucalyptus leaves. In 2007, Australia immortalized this curious, yet widely-loved creature in a brilliant, pure silver bullion coin.
Each Silver Koala bullion coin struck is another accomplishment of the Perth Mint. Like the Silver Kookaburra, these coins carry fine designs which change annually. Exceptional designs, legal tender Australian face value, and very fine .999 silver composition make the Silver Koala an excellent choice among stackers and collectors all over the world.
Although attractive in its standard 1 oz. silver bullion coin size, Silver Koalas are also available in the much larger Kilo size. These massive, silver kilo coins carry the same design as their 1 oz. counterparts, but with added detail to compensate for the change of dimensions. Proof Silver Koalas are available in even more size options. 5 oz., 10 oz., and 1 Kilo sizes of Proof Silver Koalas are all struck by the Perth Mint and sold at ModernCoinMart (MCM).
