Each 2021 1/4 oz Australian Wildlife Gold Coin offered here comes with a protective plastic flip. The coins feature a beautiful design on the reverse celebrating the kookaburra, koala, and kangaroo. Kookaburras, koalas, and kangaroos represent iconic symbols of Australian identity that have been woven deeply into the national consciousness and cultural expression.
The kookaburra’s distinctive “laughing” call features prominently in Australian folklore, literature, and music, often symbolizing the Australian bush spirit and appearing in children’s songs taught across generations. Meanwhile, the koala and kangaroo have become international ambassadors for Australia, appearing on the country’s coat of arms, currency, tourism campaigns, and sporting team emblems.
Obverse visuals on 2021 Australian Wildlife Gold Coins include a portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen is shown here in right-profile relief with the George IV State Diadem on her head. This is the final effigy of Her Majesty to grace British, Australian, and Commonwealth coinage, and it was created in 2015 by Jody Clark.
Reverse design elements on 2021 1/4 oz Australian Wildlife Gold Coins depict the koala, kookaburra, and kangaroo in a collage design field. Beyond their symbolic value, these three animals hold spiritual significance in Aboriginal Australian traditions, appearing in Dreamtime stories that connect contemporary Australians to the land’s ancient heritage.
