Sci-Fi Phenomenon DAITO and SHO are an inseperable duo fashioned after samurai warriors and ninjas, two of the five main characters from Steven Spielberg's science fiction action, Ready Player One. The film, based on Ernest Cline’s bestseller of the same name, is set in a dystopian 2045 where the characters escape to OASIS, a virtual reality universe created by the brilliant James Halliday.

The death of the reclusive billionaire sparks a worldwide search for a digital ‘egg’ he has hidden in OASIS. Whoever finds the egg will inherit OASIS and his vast fortune.

The AECH coin features AECH one of the key egg hunters, or Gunters, in vivid colour with a gun used to help him fight off rivals in the OASIS.

Seal of Quality This beautifully illustrated coin depicts a swimming crab eater seal, a species which lives in the ice-pack zone surrounding Antarctica. The seals, which grow to about 2.5m in length, can plunge 250m into the near-freezing waters. Despite their name, the light-coloured seals eat krill, not crabs, filtering out the tiny crustaceans through specially adapted teeth.

Yikes and away!

It’s DAFFY DUCK Our second coin in the exciting Looney Tunes series is certain to bring back happy memories of another of the best loved characters of American animation, DAFFY DUCK. More than 80 years since his premiere performance, DAFFY DUCK continues to delight fans of all generations on Cartoon Network and Boomerang with his zaniness and zest for life. He shares many of his comic adventures with long-time friend and rival BUGS BUNNY, who was celebrated in the first coin in this series.

Nesting Eagles Our 2018 wedge-tailed eagle design portrays a family of the unique bird in stunning high relief. The fascinating eagles are believed to mate for life and share the rearing of their young. Portrayed on the coin in remarkable detail is a mother looking down at her chick with the father in full flight behind them as he hunts for food. His magnificent wingspan and the species’ distinctive diamond-shaped tail is splendidly represented and enhanced by the coin’s high relief finish.

King of the Park A wonderful memento of Perth, this coin depicts, in superb high relief, a kookaburra flying in Kings Park with the Western Australian capital’s skyline in the background. Known as Australia’s ‘king of the bush’, kookaburras are also popular inhabitants of urban areas, including Perth’s glorious 400 hectares of open space on the edge of its CBD. The coin is struck in high relief to a rimless format, and has been individually ‘antiqued’ to capture the detail of the design.

Design feature includes Perth landmarks

Three Majestic Coins

A Historic Milestone To celebrate 65 years since the coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, The Perth Mint is proud to present three magnificent coins in pure gold and pure silver which honour the deeply respected Queen’s record as the longest reigning monarch in British history.

With her tireless devotion to public and charity work, Queen Elizabeth II has become one of the most revered monarchs in history. Even before she ascended the throne Her Majesty was admired for volunteering as a military truck driver and mechanic during World War II.

Throughout her reign Queen Elizabeth II has travelled extensively throughout the Commonwealth, where she has remained an important figurehead and symbol of stability across 65 years of extraordinary social change.

At the centre of the coin's design is St Edward’s Crown atop a stylised shield. Surrounding these symbols of the British monarchy are representations of the floral emblem of Australia, the golden wattle, as well as the official flower of each Australian state and territory.
