Spectacular 2024 Australian Tenth Anniversary Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs
Perfect Proofs, with Sought-After Designations and John Mercanti Signature Labels!

Here’s the thing. Wedge-Tailed Eagle releases from Australia’s Perth Mint, featuring reverse designs by numismatic legend John Mercanti, have been spectacular since the very first one was released in 2014. And that trend continues with this 2024 edition—for the coin’s TENTH ANNIVERSARY. It’s stunning! Not only that, but the one-ounce silver Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proof features 24-karat gold gilding for the first time ever!

 

The History-Making Collaboration Continues
Numismatic history was made with the introduction of the Wedge-Tailed Eagle because it was the first time ever that a former U.S. Mint Chief Engraver (Mercanti) teamed up with a foreign mint (Australia’s Perth Mint) to create a coin. The response among collectors worldwide was immediately overwhelming, and now, with this Tenth Anniversary edition, the Australia Wedge-Tailed Eagle series continues to be among the most anticipated releases each year, for collectors all around the globe. 

Here is the outstanding new Mercanti Wedge-Tailed Eagle design! 

Spectacular New Mercanti Wedge-Tailed Eagle High Relief Design 
This next chapter in the story depicts a majestic, highly detailed Wedge-Tailed Eagle soaring in the sky, decorated by stylized sun rays, in impressive high relief (HR). The obverse portrays the VERY FIRST definitive portrait of King Charles III for Australia. 

Additionally, each coin is inscribed “10th Anniversary” and features a “P125” mint mark in honor of the Perth Mint’s 125th Anniversary, replacing the traditional Perth Mint mint mark. AND, these proofs have a miniature design of the 2014 Wedge Tailed Eagle coin at the top of the obverse, which will only appear on 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs!



Struck in High-Purity Gold and Silver
These 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle coins are struck in five ounces and one ounce of high-purity 99.99% fine silver ($8 and $1 legal tender respectively).

 

Additional inventory, including Proofs struck  from one ounce of high-purity 99.99% gold ($100 Australia legal tender) and 2-Pc. Sets consisting of a one-ounce gold coin and a one-ounce silver coin, are available by calling our Scarce and Unique Coin Division at 888-870-6339! 

 

For the First Time Ever—24K Gold Gilding on the One-Ounce Silver Wedge-Tailed Eagle!
Each 2024 one-ounce Silver Wedge-Tailed Eagle features a 99.99% purity gold gilded design, a FIRST for this specification!



Proofs Are Struck to A Higher Standard of Quality
The exquisite proof finish offers a much higher standard of beauty, quality, and craftsmanship than coins with non-proof finishes. Proof planchets (blanks) are specially treated, hand-polished, and cleaned to ensure high-quality strikes, then fed into presses fitted with specially polished dies and struck multiple times, unlike non-proofs which are struck only once. The extra strikes give proofs a glamorous shine and make intricate, razor-sharp details of the design pop against polished, mirror-like fields. While non-proofs are struck on high-speed presses by the thousands, these proofs are struck individually by highly skilled artisans creating numismatic masterpieces. 

 

Certified Flawless PF70 UC and First Releases by NGC
Proofs and coins are graded on a 70-point scale, with a grade of 70 representing absolute perfection, even under magnification. There is no higher grade, and that’s what you have here. These 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle One-Ounce Proofs have been certified as perfect Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70 UC) by Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), one of the top coin-grading services in the world. The Ultra Cameo (UC) designation signifies these coins possess an intense frosted finish on both sides of the coin, with highly polished fields accenting the raised elements. 

Each One-Ounce Proof also carries a First Releases (FR) designation—which means these coins were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository within 30 days of their release. 



Exclusive John Mercanti Hand-Signed Signature Labels
Each of these perfect, flawless coins comes sonically sealed with an exclusive Australian Flag label with a hand-signed signature from the reverse designer, John Mercanti. Mercanti, the former 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, is the man who created more coin and medal designs than any other employee of the U.S. Mint.

 

Exclusive, Low Worldwide Mintages 
We have secured exclusive North American distribution on all 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle coins. Even so, these Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs have highly limited worldwide mintages—just 500 of the one-ounce gold Wedge-Tailed Eagles, just 1,000 of the five-ounce silver Wedge-Tailed Eagles and just 5,000 of the one-ounce silver Wedge-Tailed Eagles were authorized. 

Take a look to see why these impressive 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle proofs will hold a cherished spot in your collection!
