The Mint says about this coin:
Australia is home to several species of sea turtle, including the green turtle, loggerhead turtle, hawksbill turtle, olive ridley turtle, and the vulnerable leatherback turtle. These ancient marine reptiles have roamed the oceans for millions of years, making them an iconic part of Australia’s diverse marine ecosystems. Today, 2022 1/4 oz Australian Gold Sea Turtle Coins are available at JM Bullion. Coin Highlights:
Comes with a protective plastic flip! Distinctive Sea Turtle design! Contains 1/4 Troy oz of .9999 pure gold. The face value of $25 (AUD) is fully backed by the Australian government. On the obverse is a bust of Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse features a sea turtle swimming through the design element.
The Great Barrier Reef, a UNESCO World Heritage site off the northeast coast of Australia, is a critical habitat for sea turtles. The warm, shallow waters and abundant seagrass beds provide an ideal environment for turtles to forage, rest, and nest. Researchers estimate that the reef is home to one of the largest green turtle populations in the world, with over 60,000 individuals. All 2022 1/4 oz Australian Gold Sea Turtle Coins are available with protective plastic flips for delivery. These coins feature a unique sea turtle design that is not part of any long-running collection, but still adheres to the Perth Mint’s desire to showcase its native fauna through bullion coins. On the obverse of 2022 Australian Gold Sea Turtles is the sixth-generation bust of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Designed for The Royal Mint in 2015 by Jody Clark, this effigy of Elizabeth II began to surface on Australian coins in 2018. This portrait depicts the Queen at the age of 89 wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown. The reverse side of 2022 1/4 oz Gold Sea Turtle Coins comes with an image of a sea turtle in right-profile relief. Sea turtles play a vital role in maintaining the health of coastal and marine habitats in Australia. As hatchlings, they provide food for a variety of predators, while as adults, their grazing on seagrass and algae helps to regulate these ecosystems.
