The Mint says about the set: Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the wedge-tailed eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the biggest eagles in the world. Each of the coins in this set celebrate American engraver John M. Mercanti’s depictions of the bird across the six years of the Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle coin series. Our renowned proof quality standard combined with a flawless high relief strike portrays the visionary designs with outstanding clarity.
The coin reverses depict the magnificent wedge-tailed eagles in a variety of stances, in flight with wings fully extended, perched on a branch, with prey in its talons and with its chick. The designs also includes the inscription AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE, the 2021 year-date, the weight and fineness and The Perth Mint’s P mintmark.
