Struck from 1oz of 99.99% pure silver in proof quality, this spectacular coin from the Great Southern Land Series features an Australia-shaped insert made from green chrysoprase.
Deriving its verdant color from nickel, chrysoprase makes an eye-catching jewelry stone when polished. Also known as ‘Australian jade,’ the gorgeously green insert in this coin perfectly epitomizes the lush habitat and remarkable biodiversity of Australia’s rainforests.
The map-shaped chrysoprase insert is surrounded by depictions of iconic rainforest fauna and flora, including a flying fox, a possum, a tree snake, a kingfisher, a crocodile, a butterfly, a tree frog, a cassowary, and an orb-weaving spider. As well as representations of plant life, the design incorporates ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary in 2024, and the coin’s weight, purity, and year-date.
