Named for its long, distinctively shaped tail, the wedge-tailed eagle is Australia’s largest bird of prey and one of the biggest eagles in the world. With an impressive wingspan of up to 2.5 meters, it can also be recognised from its long, powerful legs which are feathered all the way to its feet.

The Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle 10th Anniversary 2024 2oz Silver Coloured Coin in Card is struck by The Perth Mint from 99.99% pure silver with a mintage of only 2,500 coins worldwide.

The coin portrays a coloured representation of a wedge-tailed eagle soaring. The image appears on a background featuring geometrically arranged elements that suggest a sunburst.

Also included are the coin’s weight, purity, and year-date.
