2025 Christmas Festive Florals Silver Proof Coin

A number of native Australian plants that flower in December each year have traditionally been seen as heralds of the Christmas season.

One of these is the elegant Queensland Christmas orchid – Calanthe triplicata, which the Royal Australian Mint celebrates with this stunning 2025 50c Coloured Fine Silver Proof Coin.

Radiant and rare, the Queensland Christmas orchid – Calanthe triplicata – unfurls its snowy blossoms to herald the festive season with delicate beauty. Found in the lush, shaded rainforests, this native orchid enchants with its pure white flowers and elegant sprays, a quiet reminder of nature’s enduring grace and the magic of an Australian Christmas.

Each coin is struck by the Royal Australian Mint from 18.24g of 99.9% pure silver and is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965 with a mintage of 10,000.
