The Perth Mint is pleased to present the stunning 2015 5oz Australian Koala Gold Proof Coin, featuring one of Australia’s most loved marsupials.
The koala is a warm-blooded marsupial that lives mainly on the eastern coast of Australia. Dependent on whether it is found in the southern parts of eastern Australia or in the northern parts, its size and colour will vary. This unique animal sleeps for up to 19 hours a day due to its low metabolic rate, and can live for 20 or more years.
