Together with the kangaroo, the **koala** is one of the most striking representatives of Australian fauna. It was first described by the zoologist Georg August Goldfuß in 1817 as "Lipurus cinereu." Koalas prefer to live in dry eucalyptus forests, which provide a suitable food supply for the picky marsupials. Although koalas are often regarded as solitary animals, closer observation reveals that they live within a stable social system. Continually threatened by habitat loss, koalas are considered endangered according to the IUCN. While the nocturnal herbivores were once widespread in Australia, the total population is now estimated at around 60,000 individuals. The limited **Koala Premium gold bullion coin** is delivered in a protective coin capsule.
