Comment

This coin is the first in the annual series of 1oz limited mintage Silver Swan coins with designs varying each year, much like the heralded Koala and Kookaburra coin series from Perth Mint.

Swans are often a symbol of love and fidelity due to their long-lasting monogamous relationships. Swans are almost entirely herbivorous, though they will eat small amounts of aquatic animals. There are around seven different species of swan found around the world. Swans are classified as a threatened species mostly due to hunting and habitat loss. Pollution is also a contributing factor.

Interesting fact

The Australian Silver Swan coin features a unique design that showcases a swan gliding gracefully across the water, with a small baby swan, known as a cygnet, resting on its back. This design is a nod to the famous Australian ballet, "Swan Lake," and is a beautiful representation of the country's rich cultural heritage.
