Platypuses mainly live in Eastern Australia and are sometimes referred to as duck-bills. These semi-aquatic, egg-laying mammals primarily reside in and near lakes, rivers, and streams. Ranging in length from 15 to 24 inches, the adult Platypus usually weighs between 2 lbs and 5 lbs. Platypuses are covered with dense, brown, biofluorescent fur that extends across their body and tail, trapping a layer of insulating air to keep warm. Females are responsible for the rearing of their young, as the males take no part in the process. The Perth Mint has honored this relationship by depicting the mother platypus and her young swimming together on the reverse of the coin. Delve into the shallow depths with the new 2021 Silver Platypus Perth Mint Coin!

The obverse showcases the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by inscriptions. Her bust appears in front of a background of radial lines.

The reverse, designed by Monique Reeves, features a mother Platypus swimming serenely with her young beneath the water’s surface. The background displays radial lines, and the Perth Mint mintmark is inscribed on the right side of the coin.
