Australian Emu 2026 $1 1oz .9999 Fine Silver Coloured Coin in Box – Perth Mint
Celebrate one of Australia’s most recognisable native animals with the magnificent Australian Emu 2026 1oz Silver Coloured Coin, expertly produced by The Perth Mint from 1 Troy Ounce of .9999 fine silver.
The beautifully illustrated reverse portrays an adult emu walking alongside five young chicks through the Australian outback. Selective colour brings the scene to life, creating a vivid desert landscape complete with a bright blue sky and warm orange sun.
Limited to a maximum worldwide mintage of only 2,500 coins, this Australian legal-tender release is presented in an official Perth Mint display case with an illustrated outer shipper and individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
Its combination of pure silver, detailed wildlife artwork, specialist presentation and extremely limited availability makes it an exceptional addition to any Australian wildlife, Perth Mint or coloured silver collection.
Australia’s Remarkable Outback Runner
Found naturally only in Australia, the emu is the world’s second-largest living bird.
Although unable to fly, the emu possesses exceptionally strong legs that allow it to sprint at speeds of up to approximately 50 kilometres per hour. Its speed, endurance and ability to travel considerable distances make it perfectly adapted to Australia’s challenging landscapes.
Emus are also unusual for their distinctive parenting behaviour. After the female lays her eggs, the male assumes responsibility for protecting and incubating them for approximately eight weeks. During this period, he rarely leaves the nest, even for food or water.
Young emu chicks are born with striking brown and cream stripes that provide natural camouflage. These markings gradually disappear as the birds mature, with the chicks typically becoming independent at around seven months of age.
Coloured Emu Family Design
The reverse, designed by Perth Mint artist Neil Hollis, portrays an adult emu walking proudly alongside five young chicks.
The family is shown moving through an Australian desert landscape beneath a bright blue sky and vivid orange sun. Carefully applied colour highlights the birds and their natural surroundings, contrasting beautifully against the exposed silver elements of the coin.
The design captures both the strength of the adult emu and the vulnerability of its young, reflecting the remarkable protective role played by the male of the species.
Also included on the reverse are the inscription ‘AUSTRALIAN EMU’, the coin’s 1oz weight, its .9999 silver purity, the 2026 year-date and The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark.
H.M. King Charles III Obverse
The obverse displays the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.
Surrounding the portrait are the inscriptions identifying King Charles III and Australia, together with the coin’s official monetary denomination.
With a face value of $1 AUD, the coin is issued as legal tender of Australia.
One Troy Ounce of .9999 Fine Silver
Each Australian Emu coin is struck from 1 Troy Ounce of 99.99% pure silver, with a minimum gross weight of 31.107g.
Measuring approximately 40.90mm in diameter, the coin provides a generous surface for the detailed emu family design and colourful outback scenery.
Its substantial silver content is combined with a maximum mintage of just 2,500 coins, providing significantly greater collectable appeal than a standard one-ounce bullion issue.
Limited Worldwide Mintage
The Perth Mint will release no more than 2,500 Australian Emu 2026 1oz Silver Coloured Coins worldwide.
This restricted mintage makes the release particularly appealing to collectors of Australian wildlife coins and limited Perth Mint issues.
Each coin is accompanied by an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity, confirming its place within the strictly limited worldwide release.
Official Perth Mint Presentation
The coin is housed inside a classic Perth Mint display case with a clear lid, allowing the coloured reverse to remain visible whilst the coin is protected.
The display case is accompanied by an illustrated outer shipper designed to complement the Australian Emu theme. An individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity is also included.
The complete presentation makes the coin suitable for display and gifting whilst preserving the original Perth Mint packaging valued by collectors.
