2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle 3oz Silver Proof $3
10th Anniversary of the Wedge-Tailed Eagle Series
This extraordinary 3oz silver proof coin showcases an Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle. With a wingspan of up to 2.5 metres, the distinctive raptor is easily identified by its wedge-shaped tail and legs feathered down to its feet. Observed throughout mainland Australia and in the island state of Tasmania, it can soar tirelessly for hours at altitudes of 2,000 metres and beyond on thermal air currents rising from Australia’s sun-baked terrain.
This is the ninth wedge-tailed eagle design for The Perth Mint by renowned American sculptor and engraver, John M. Mercanti. The coin’s design portrays a wedge-tailed eagle soaring. The raptor appears on a background featuring geometrically arranged elements that suggest a sunburst.
