A special tribute: The ANA Coin Show Special 2025 Koala with Bison Privy Coin

This ANA Coin Show Special 2025 Australian Koala with Bison Privy 1oz Silver Coloured Coin from The Perth Mint is a beautiful and meaningful fusion of Australian charm and American heritage, created to celebrate the prestigious American Numismatic Association (ANA) World’s Fair of Money. This coin is a testament to the global community of collectors, blending iconic symbols from two continents in a single, magnificent piece.

If you can't be at the ANA World's Money Fair in Oklahoma later this month, this coin available now at www.mintcoinshop.com.au gives you a keepsake made for the event.

A design rich with detail and symbolism

Crafted from one ounce of 99.99% pure silver, this coin’s reverse design masterfully portrays one of Australia's most beloved and iconic marsupials. A koala is depicted in a moment of quiet repose, embracing a tree trunk amidst a sprig of eucalyptus foliage. This endearing image is a signature of The Perth Mint’s Koala series, renowned for its lifelike detail and heartfelt tribute to Australian wildlife.

What makes this release special is the inclusion of a coloured privy mark: a striking image of a bison. This majestic creature, often referred to as the buffalo, is North America's largest terrestrial animal and a powerful symbol of the United States. The vibrant colouring of the bison provides a beautiful contrast to the frosted and polished finishes of the main design, drawing the eye and signifying the coin’s unique commemorative purpose. This cross-cultural design celebrates the spirit of numismatic collaboration between Australia and the host country of the ANA World's Fair of Money.

Craftsmanship and exclusivity

This legal tender coin, with a denomination of $1, showcases The Perth Mint’s renowned proof quality. The coin’s obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, as designed by Dan Thorne, along with its weight and purity. This commitment to quality and detail is what makes Perth Mint coins so highly sought after worldwide.

As an ANA show special, this coin is exceptionally exclusive, with a maximum mintage of just 2,500. This low production number ensures its rarity and enhances its collectable appeal. Each coin is housed in a special ANA World’s Fair of Money presentation card, featuring the show's logo and dates, and is complete with a fold-out stand for upright display. This bespoke packaging not only protects the coin but also serves as a beautiful showcase for its unique design and story.

For collectors who value exclusivity, artistry, and historical significance, the ANA Coin Show Special 2025 Koala with Bison Privy coin is an essential acquisition. It represents a memorable moment in the global numismatic calendar, capturing the shared passion for coins that connects cultures across the world. This is a truly special piece, blending the serenity of the Australian outback with the rugged strength of the American plains.
