Distinctive eagle Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the wedge-tailed eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the biggest eagles in the world. With an impressive wingspan of up to 2.5 metres, it can also be recognised by its powerful legs which are feathered all the way to its feet. With the ability to fly tirelessly for many hours, the majestic wedge-tailed eagle frequently reaches altitudes of 2,000 meters and beyond on thermal air currents rising from Australia's sun-baked terrain.
Design - Ready to soar
Sculpted for The Perth Mint by renowned US engraver, John M. Mercanti, the coin’s reverse portrays the wedge-tailed eagle with outstretched wings. Reflecting its formidable hunting skills, the artistry highlights the bird's large and superbly effective eyes and a large, hooked beak. The deeper planchet of the enhanced reverse proof ultra high relief finish brings out the design in all its shining glory, accentuating every feathery detail. As well as the inscription ‘AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE’ and The Perth Mint's ‘P’ mintmark, the reverse also includes the coin’s weight, fineness and 2025 year-date.
Presentation
