The platypus is one of the most unique animal species from a continent on planet Earth that is already known for its one-of-a-kind diversity. A semiaquatic, egg-laying mammal, the platypus is the last living member of its family and genus, with all other related species extinct. The platypus has been a popular figure on Perth Mint coinage since its introduction on platinum coins.

Coin Highlights:

  • Available to you in protective plastic flips, acrylic tubes of 15 coins.
  • Stunning silver version of the Australian Platypus!
  • Unlimited mintage in 2021!
  • Contains 1.5 Troy oz of .9999 pure silver in BU condition.
  • The face value of $2 (AUD) is fully backed by the Australian government.

The platypus is one of the most recognizable creatures from the Australian continent and an iconic symbol of the nation.
