Celebrate 100 years of Australia’s national identity with the 2008 Australian Commonwealth Coat of Arms Silver Proof Coloured Coin.
Issued by The Perth Mint to commemorate the centenary of the first official Commonwealth Coat of Arms granted by Royal Warrant in 1908, this prestigious collector coin honours one of Australia's most important national symbols.
Struck from 1oz of pure silver to flawless Proof quality, the coin features a vibrant coloured representation of the historic Coat of Arms, highlighting the shield, Federation Star, kangaroo, and emu that have become enduring emblems of the Australian nation.
With a limited mintage of just 7,500 coins worldwide, this release offers strong appeal for collectors of Australian history, heraldry, and commemorative silver coinage.
The reverse features a beautifully coloured representation of the original 1908 Commonwealth Coat of Arms.
The design showcases:
- The shield displaying six state escutcheons
- The Cross of St George with five six-pointed stars
- The seven-pointed Federation Star
- The kangaroo and emu supporters
- The motto "Advance Australia"
The vibrant colour application highlights the intricate heraldic details while creating striking contrast against the mirror-like Proof silver fields.
