Comment
From the year 2000 the Platinum Koala coins were only issued in Proof.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2003 Australian Platinum Koala coin is that it has a unique design feature. The koala bear depicted on the coin is not just a generic image, but it's actually a representation of a specific koala named "Koala Blue." The design was created by the Australian artist, Natasha Muhl, who was inspired by her encounter with a blue-eyed koala at a wildlife sanctuary in Queensland. The use of a real-life koala as the model for the coin's design adds a touch of authenticity and charm to the coin, making it a truly distinctive collectible.
