Information about Silver Wedge-Tailed Eagle 1 oz RP – High Relief 2025

The Wedge-Tailed Eagle, known in German as the Keilschwanzadler, is a large bird of prey found almost throughout Australia. Some individuals have even been sighted in southern New Guinea. The wingspan of the Wedge-Tailed Eagle can reach up to 2.7 meters. This eagle is characterized by its wedge-shaped tail and small head with a large, powerful beak. It primarily feeds on medium-sized mammals. The eagle can soar tirelessly for hours and is known for rising to altitudes of 2,000 meters or more using thermal air currents that rise from Australia’s sun-drenched terrain. The Australian Perth Mint has dedicated the coin series "Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle" to this bird of prey. The coin’s design was created by John M. Mercanti, former engraver of the US Mint.

The High Relief coin in Reverse Proof (RP) is delivered in an elegant case with a numbered certificate of authenticity. Reverse Proof (RP) is especially popular with collectors and represents one of the most intricate coin production techniques. The global mintage of this coin is strictly limited to 3,000 pieces.

The design of the silver coin

The obverse of the coin features a depiction of a wedge-tailed eagle with outstretched wings, ready to take flight. The majestic bird of prey, known for its impressive wingspan and distinctive wedge-shaped tail feathers, is captured in a dynamic pose symbolizing its strength and elegance. This artistic rendering not only highlights the beauty of this formidable bird but also recalls its important role in Australia’s natural ecosystem. The motif is surrounded by the inscription "AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE" along with the year of issue and the coin’s purity: "2025 1oz 9999 SILVER". The Perth Mint’s mintmark "P" is also featured.
