Comment
Second coin in the Perth Mint's Australian Map shaped coloured Australian Animal coins.Interesting fact
The 1 Dollar - Elizabeth II (4th Portrait - Emu) 2012 coin from Australia features a unique design that showcases an emu, a large flightless bird native to Australia, on the reverse side. This design was created by the Royal Australian Mint's chief engraver, Vladimir Gottwald, and it is the first time an emu has been featured on a coin in this series. The coin's obverse side features the fourth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, which was also designed by Gottwald. This coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced for collectors. It is made of silver (.999) and weighs 31.1035 grams. The use of pad printing technology gives the coin a distinctive finish and adds to its collectibility.
