Description:
The 2026 Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle is an exceptional 2 oz silver collector coin from The Perth Mint, combining Enhanced Reverse Proof surfaces, spectacular Ultra High Relief and selective 24-carat gold gilding.
Struck from 2 troy ounces of 99.99% pure silver, the coin weighs 62.213 grams and carries a legal-tender denomination of 2 Australian Dollars. The maximum worldwide mintage is strictly limited to only 1,000 pieces.
The reverse was designed by renowned American sculptor and engraver John M. Mercanti, former Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. The 2026 release represents Mercanti’s eleventh Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle design for The Perth Mint.
The dramatic composition features an Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle in the foreground with a Bald Eagle positioned behind it. Selected elements of the design and the outer rim are highlighted with 24-carat gold, creating a striking contrast with the Enhanced Reverse Proof silver surfaces.
A defining feature of this premium edition is its Ultra High Relief. The deeply sculpted design creates exceptional dimensionality and allows the intricate details of the eagles’ plumage and powerful profiles to stand prominently above the surrounding fields.
The reverse also incorporates the inscription “AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE”, The Perth Mint’s traditional “P” mintmark, the 2026 year-date, weight and silver fineness.
The obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III together with the monetary denomination.
The Wedge-tailed Eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the country’s most recognizable raptors. Its impressive wingspan, powerful build and characteristic wedge-shaped tail have made it an enduring symbol of Australia’s wildlife.
Combining 2 oz of .9999 fine silver, Enhanced Reverse Proof quality, Ultra High Relief, selective 24-carat gold gilding and a maximum worldwide mintage of only 1,000 pieces, this is an outstanding premium edition in The Perth Mint’s Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle collection.
The coin is presented in its original Perth Mint presentation case with an illustrated outer shipper and accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
Please Note:
The photographs shown in this listing are marketing and presentation images. The buyer will receive the same official Perth Mint issue with the specifications described above.
The individual Certificate of Authenticity number may differ from the number visible in the photographs. Minor natural variations in surface appearance, gilding, toning or packaging condition may occur.
Condition Note:
Due to the Enhanced Reverse Proof surfaces, pronounced Ultra High Relief and selectively gilded elements, the coin may exhibit microscopic hairlines, light contact or handling marks, small edge marks or dents, surface spots, natural toning, slight surface variations, minor differences in gilding or other minor minting-, finishing-, storage- or handling-related characteristics.
Such characteristics may vary from coin to coin and may become visible under strong or directional lighting, at certain viewing angles or under magnification.
The protective capsule may exhibit light scratches, scuffs, fingerprints, storage marks or handling marks. The original presentation case and illustrated outer shipper may show light scratches, scuffs, fingerprints, storage or handling marks, small dents, pressure marks, creases or soft corners. The numbered Certificate of Authenticity may show minor storage or handling wear.
Important:
Each auction lot is processed and shipped individually. Combined shipping for multiple winning lots is not available. Every coin is carefully packed separately to ensure maximum protection during transit and to comply with our shipping policy.
