2016 Australia 1/10-oz Gold Wedge-Tailed Eagle

The Historic Meeting of Mercanti and the Perth Mint -- in One-Tenth Ounce Gold for the First Time Ever!

When artists get together, amazing things are bound to happen. We knew something incredible would result from the meeting of legendary coin designer John Mercanti and the creatives of the Perth Mint. What we didn't know was that they would end up creating the next great legendary coin series. In just a little over two years, the Australia Wedge-Tailed Eagle is on its way to joining names like Gold Eagle, Panda and Krugerrand with no signs of stopping. However, out of the Wedge-Tailed Eagles that have been released, one popular size in gold has been missing -- the popular one-tenth ounce.

Today, that changes for good. Introducing the 2016 Australian 1/10-oz Gold Wedge-Tailed Eagle -- the very first of its kind. Sure, the canvas of 16 millimeters is definitely smaller than the original, but Mercanti's design stays true with each beautifully detailed feather gleaming in 99.99% pure gold. The bird sits majestically perched among a flawlessly clean field, a contrast that shows true numismatic artistry. On the other side, a regal portrait of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II and the denomination of 15 dollars Australian attest to this coin's legal-tender status.

This first year issue will come to you exactly as it left Australia's celebrated Perth Mint in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, encased in an acrylic capsule to preserve its gleaming condition.
