Silver Ounce 2024 Australian Wombat, Coin from Australia
CoinSilver Ounce 2024 Australian Wombat

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.

The Australian Wombat 2024 1oz Silver Coin is part of a large coin range by the Perth Mint featuring Australian animals.

The mint says about it:
Australia’s largest burrowing animal, the wombat is perfectly built for tunneling with powerful limbs and claws. Like other marsupials, the female wombat has a special pouch in which its offspring completes its development. In this species, the pouch opens backwards to avoid smothering the young animal with soil as its parent tunnels underground.
