Comment

With the long-running Kookaburra and Koala series under its belt, the Perth Mint introduced the Quokka silver bullion coin in 2020. This was followed by an entirely new bullion coin the following year, featuring the Australian Wombat. According to the Perth Mint website, this design was introduced to add to the range of silver bullion coins celebrating the iconic Australian marsupials.

The Australia wombat is a short-legged muscular quadrupedal marsupial that come from the Vombatidae family. There are three extant species and they are found in forested, mountainous and heathland areas of southern and eastern Australia. Wombats are herbivorous, typically growing to about 1m/40in in length and weigh between 20-35kg/44-77lb. They have rodent-like front teeth and powerful claws. All species of wombats are protected in Australia.
