Information about the Gold Tasmanian Tiger 1 oz Proof – 2026

This impressive gold coin is a dramatic tribute to one of Australia’s most mysterious and best-known animals: the Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacinus cynocephalus). The issue commemorates the 90th anniversary of the death of the last known Tasmanian Tiger, which died at Hobart Zoo on 7 September 1936. With its wolf-like head, rigid kangaroo-like tail and distinctive tiger-like striped coat, this nocturnal marsupial is one of the most fascinating animals in Australian wildlife.

The Tasmanian Tiger was once native to Tasmania, mainland Australia and Papua New Guinea. However, hunting, disease and the destruction of its natural habitat gradually drove the species into decline and ultimately to extinction. Despite being officially declared extinct, the Tasmanian Tiger remains the subject of numerous legends and unconfirmed sightings to this day—a myth that has preserved its cultural significance into the present. This exclusive commemorative coin impressively captures this unique combination of tragedy, fascination and cultural heritage.

This exclusive gold coin is struck in Proof quality. Proof is particularly sought after by collectors and is considered one of the most elaborate coin production techniques. With a worldwide mintage of only 50 pieces, this gold coin is strictly limited and is supplied in an elegant presentation case together with a numbered certificate of authenticity.

The Design of the Gold Coin

The reverse depicts the Tasmanian Tiger in an impressive and dynamic design that emphasises both the strength and mysterious aura of this legendary animal. Alongside the portrait of King Charles III, the obverse bears the inscription “CHARLES III” as well as the issuing country and year “NIUE 2026”. The face value of “100 DOLLARS”, the fine weight of “1 oz” and the fineness of “9999 GOLD” are also shown.
