2021 1.5 oz Australian Platypus .9999 Silver Coin
Introducing the extraordinary 2021 1.5 oz Australian Platypus .9999 Silver Coin, a true marvel of nature captured in precious silver. This exquisite coin celebrates the unique and fascinating platypus, a mammal like no other. One of the platypus's most intriguing features is its venomous spur, found exclusively in males. While it may cause severe pain to humans, this potent venom serves as a formidable defense mechanism, capable of taking down small prey. Its presence harks back to ancient mammal groups that have long gone extinct, making the platypus a living relic of a bygone era. The obverse of this stunning coin showcases a magnificent right-profile bust of Queen Elizabeth II, created by Jody Clark in 2015. This sixth-generation effigy portrays Her Majesty wearing the illustrious George IV State Diadem Crown, representing her regal authority.

On the reverse, immerse yourself in the enchanting world of the platypus as it gracefully glides beneath a delicate lilypad.
