Proof Quality 99.99% Pure Silver
The Australian Emu is meticulously struck from 1oz of 99.99% pure silver to our renowned proof standard combining a mirror-like polished background with delicately frosted relief.
Detailed Reverse Design
The coin’s reverse portrays a superb representation of the world’s second largest living bird striding across a scrubby landscape. Notice the fine detailing representing the flightless emu’s shaggy plumage – essential for its ability to survive extreme changes of temperature in the outback. Of important cultural significance to Aboriginal people for millennia, the six foot tall emu would have astonished the first European explorers to reach Australian shores in the 17th century.
Australian Legal Tender
Issued as legal tender under the authority of the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coin portrays the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on its obverse.
