Product Description:
The Perth Mint is pleased to present the Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle 2025 1oz Rose Gold Reverse Proof Ultra High Relief Coin, struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 91.67% pure rose gold in enhanced reverse proof quality.
Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the wedge-tailed eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the biggest eagles in the world. With an impressive wingspan of up to 2.5 metres, it can also be recognised by its powerful legs which are feathered all the way to its feet. With the ability to fly tirelessly for many hours, the majestic wedge-tailed eagle frequently reaches altitudes of 2,000 meters and beyond on thermal air currents rising from Australia’s sun-baked terrain.
Sculpted for The Perth Mint by
renowned US engraver, John M.
Mercanti, the coin’s ultra high relief
design portrays a standing wedge-
tailed eagle with outstretched wings.
Reflecting its formidable hunting skills,
the artistry highlights the bird’s large
and superbly effective eyes and a large,
hooked beak. Included on the reverse
is the inscription ‘AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-
TAILED EAGLE’, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’
mintmark, and the coin’s weight and 2025 year-date.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
The coin’s ultra-high relief reverse is minted on a
concave surface to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.
