This brand—new first—release 2012 Australia Silver Dollar Discover Australia Proof features one of the continent's most recognizable animals displayed in brilliant 99.9% silver against colored backgrounds of their native habitats. Each Silver Dollar contains one ounce of fine silver.

$1 Goanna Lizard—the continent's largest monitor lizard. These reptiles are usually dark gray to black in color and display cream or yellow scales which form bands and spots. Goannas are found throughout Australia in a variety of environments. Using their powerful legs and tail, long neck and strong claws, they move quickly across the ground and through trees. The Goanna is the only lizard to possess a forked tongue.

This bigger—than—big series has a smaller—than—small mintage of only 7,500 individual coins. History teaches us that you want to buy the first issue in any Australian animal series right away, because they are usually destined to become highly sought after as the series unfolds.

Don't wait on this Discover Australia coin. You can also order a five—piece set, while they last. Each comes in spectacular mint packaging.
