The coin’s reverse portrays a koala clinging to a tree trunk, and eucalyptus foliage. The koala and the coin’s rim are gilded in 22-carat pink gold. Included on the reverse are the inscriptions ‘KOALA’ and a ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary, as well as the coin’s weight, purity and 2024 year-date.

The coin has been struck with an extra-deep blank to showcase its superbly detailed design in high relief. Elements of this high relief design have been gilded in pink gold, superbly combining two celebrated minting techniques.

The coin is housed in a classic display case with a clear lid and includes packaging featuring a delightful koala image. The release is accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity.
