Experience the perfect balance of artistry and strength with the 2020 2 oz Proof Gold Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle, struck by the prestigious Perth Mint in .9999 fine gold. Designed by the legendary John M. Mercanti, former Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, this stunning high-relief coin showcases the fifth exclusive design in the acclaimed Wedge-Tailed Eagle series. Certified by NGC as a flawless PF 70 Ultra Cameo with the coveted First Day designation, this proof gold coin is a true masterpiece of numismatic craftsmanship.
The 2020 edition of the Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle series highlights Mercanti’s unparalleled ability to capture the dynamic essence of this magnificent bird of prey. The reverse presents an extraordinary high-relief depiction of a wedge-tailed eagle swooping on its prey mid-hunt, wings fully extended and talons outstretched — a breathtaking image of precision, focus, and motion. Encircling the design are inscriptions reading “AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE,” “2020,” “2 oz 9999 GOLD,” and the Perth Mint’s “P” mintmark.
To achieve its exceptional depth and definition, both the obverse and reverse are struck on concave surfaces, ensuring optimal metal flow during minting and allowing each feather and contour to appear remarkably lifelike.
