{{/presale}}Introducing the 3rd coin in Australia’s Most Dangerous Series, the 2023 Colorized Proof Royal Australian Mint Desert Scorpion 1 oz Silver Coin, brought to you by Provident Metals. The Royal Australian Mint, the only sovereign mint in Australia, has a rich history dating back to 1964 when it took over as the producer of the nation’s official coinage. While responsible for the official coinage of Australia, they also issue unique series of coins, like the Australia’s Most Dangerous Series.
Highlights:
Each 2023 Colorized Proof Royal Australian Mint Desert Scorpion 1 oz Silver Coin will be delivered in an elegant presentation box, accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. These coins are proofs and colorized specimens.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2023 Colorized Proof Royal Australian Mint Desert Scorpion 1 oz Silver Coin showcases the final effigy of Her Majesty, designed by Jody Clark. This depiction shows her in right-profile relief donning the Royal Diadem. Surrounding her are identifying marks of the coin. These marks include ELIZABETH II, 1952-2022, AUSTRALIA 2023, 5 DOLLARS, and JC.
Reverse
On the reverse, a fearsome Desert Scorpion is displayed in full color. The background features the sun rising with its rays shining on the scorpion and the desert landscape. Inscriptions read DESERT SCORPION, and 1 OZ .999 SILVER.
History
Desert Scorpions, among the largest on the continent, have adapted to survive the scorching desert heat by burrowing up to 39 inches deep into the sand. While they’re part of the Australia’s Most Dangerous Series, they can also be found in some pet stores throughout the continent.
