2024 Australia $1 1-oz Silver Wombat BU

Australia’s Wombat Returns For A Fourth Year!

Australia is home to a dizzying array of animals found nowhere else in the world. One of those critters is the adorable Wombat, a chunky marsupial that, despite sharing many traits with its more well-known cousins like the Koala and Kangaroo, has its own distinctive traits that makes it unique in the menagerie from the Land Down Under. And now, just like the Koala and Kangaroo, the Wombat has been elevated to celebrity status thanks to a popular bullion coin series from the Perth Mint. And now, this portly little fellow returns for a fourth year!

You’ll Really Dig This Silver Bullion Coin From Australia

What exactly IS a Wombat? Well, picture a prairie dog that has hulked out on steroids. An average-sized Wombat looks and acts sort of like a prairie dog only it’s around three feet long, weighs between 45 to 80 pounds, and has short legs and sharp claws with which it uses to dig tunnels and burrow underground. And, like Kangaroos and Koalas, it nurtures its young in a pouch. There’s a big difference with Wombats, however: Instead of having its pouch in the front, female Wombat pouches are in the back, where their young are protected during the critter’s constant need to dig. Its no wonder the Aboriginal word for Wombat means: “burrowing marsupial.” What’s more, Wombats are so culturally significant in Australia that Wombat Day is observed each year on October 22.
