{{/presale}}In 2017, the Perth Mint expanded its collection of wildlife-themed bullion with the introduction of the Australian Swan series. Each coin in this series is crafted from 1 oz of .9999 pure gold and features a new reverse design every year. Now, you can purchase the 2018 Australian Swan 1 oz Gold Coins from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
The Australian Swan series is a part of the Perth Mint’s prestigious line of bullion coins featuring native Australian wildlife. This tradition began with the Kookaburra and Kangaroo in 1990 and now includes the Koala (2007), Wedge Tailed Eagle (2014), Emu (2018), Quokka (2020), Brumby (2020), and Wombat (2021).
Obverse
The obverse of the 2018 Swan 1 oz Gold Coins features a detailed portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This right-profile bust, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley in 1998, shows the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. This image has been widely used on coins throughout the Commonwealth. Inscriptions include ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA, 2018, and 100 DOLLARS.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 2018 Australian Swan Gold Coin, you’ll find a graceful depiction of an adult swan swimming with its young cygnet. The young swan, covered in soft down, stays close to its parent for safety and guidance. This scene beautifully captures the protective and caring nature of swan families. Inscriptions read THE 1 OZ 9999 AUSTRALIAN GOLD SWAN and a P mint mark.
History
Each year, the Australian Swan series offers a unique design. Swans are known for their strong, lifelong pair bonds, often staying with one partner for life. Both parents are involved in raising the cygnets. They teach them how to find food and protect them from potential dangers. Swans are known to be fiercely protective of their young, often displaying aggressive behavior towards perceived threats.
