Silver coin $1 Australia 2026 – Koala BU (Royal Australian Mint)

The 2026 Koala is more than just a pure silver investment coin; it’s a small artistic story about Australian nature. This issue is part of the Koala Series, dedicated to one of the continent’s most recognizable symbols.

The koala is an animal as closely associated with Australia as kangaroos or eucalyptus forests. It embodies the tranquility, solitude, and fragility of the wild. The choice of this image for the coin is a reminder of the country’s natural heritage and how much care it should receive.

The obverse of the coin features the profile of His Majesty King Charles III. The reverse features an illustration of a family of koalas perched on eucalyptus branches.

The coin was issued by the Royal Australian Mint (RAM).
