Silver Ounce 2024 Australian Olympic Team, Domed, Coin from Australia - detailed information

The Australian one ounce silver piece (abbreviated as 1 oz and designated with Ag for "silver") is a bullion and commemorative coin format. Uniquely, in Australia there are two mints authorised to strike legal tender: the Royal Australian Mint (which also makes the country's circulating coinage) and the Perth Mint which only makes collector and bullion coins, as well as other bullion products.

Both mints endeavour to create coins with attractive designs, and to introduce new designs and themes often, in order to raise the numismatic value of the coins over the value of previous metal used.

This dome-shaped one-ounce silver coin was issued to mark the participation of the Australian Olympic Team in the summer Olympic Games in Paris in 2024.

The mint says about it:
The Australian Olympic Team’s prowess and the spirit of the Olympic Games is expertly captured in this distinguished Fine Silver Proof Domed Coin. For 16 days starting in July, Australia will be enthralled by approximately 470 of the nation’s best sportsmen and women as they compete against the world in events including athletics, boxing, diving and rowing. This domed coin is the ultimate piece of Paris 2024 Olympics memorabilia.
