This type of blank is thicker than a standard coin, making it heavier while keeping the same diameter. The style is based on minting practices that date back to France. **Obverse** The obverse design features King Charles III in a left-facing portrait. This image, designed by Dan Thorne in 2024, is the first official effigy of the king used on Australian coins. Notably, the depiction does not include a crown. **Reverse** On the reverse, youll find the detailed image of a parent emu with its chicks. Male emus are very protective of their young and will act defensively if they sense danger. They remain close to their offspring for around six months, helping them grow and stay out of harms way in their early stages of life. **History** While the coins artwork shows a mother emu and her chicks, male emus actually take on the role of raising the young. After the female lays her eggs, the male stays behind to care for them. He incubates the eggs for about two months, leaving the nest rarely and enduring physical strain as he ensures their survival. **Ordering** If you have any questions about this coin or other silver coins for sale, BGASC customer service is here to help.
