Designed by Dan Thorne, this effigy marks one of the earliest appearances of His Majesty on Australian coins. The portrait shows the king without a crown, aligning with the modern style used for early issues of his reign. **Reverse** On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Proof RAM Silver Koala Coin, the design illustrates a group of koalas resting among the branches of a gum tree. Although they are often portrayed as affectionate, koalas are mostly solitary animals. Mothers care for their joeys alone, with young koalas spending several months in the pouch before transitioning to riding on their mothers back and learning to navigate the trees while adjusting to a eucalyptus-based diet. **History** Koalas are native to eucalyptus forests and woodland regions found along Australias eastern and southeastern coastline. Their habitat spans from Queensland down through New South Wales and Victoria, with select populations extending into South Australia. These marsupials rely on specific eucalyptus varieties for nutrition and shelter, making stable forest conditions essential to their survival. **Ordering** Please contact BGASC with any questions about silver coins for sale.
