Australia’s 2022 Wedge-Tailed Eagle Is Ready To Dive Into Your Collection

2022 brings us a new design in the Wedge-Tailed Eagle Series. The ninth year since its introduction in 2014, and the seventh design from John Mercanti, the now-retired 12th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint, shows Australia’s largest bird of prey in a majestic side profile calling with his beak open. This series from the Perth Mint is a collectors-favorite, both for the incredible Mercanti designs and for its numismatic importance as the first-ever collaboration between a former U.S. Mint Chief Engraver and a foreign world mint.

New Mercanti Design Is An Instant Classic

Like past year’s releases, this 2022-dated coin is struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver. It continues the series of the Perth Mint’s modern-day masterpieces with a Mercanti design that features a close-up profile of the Wedge Tailed Eagle as we’ve never seen him before, displaying a stunning side profile of the magnificent bird with his beak open as he makes a high-pitched “Peal Call” announcing that humans are near. The image is truly the prefect blend of design, precious metal, and collector appeal.

Flawless Coins From Among The First Issued

Plus, each coin available in this offer has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in flawless Mint State-70 (MS70) condition, a distinction that means your perfectly-graded coin will have ZERO imperfections—showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended! In addition, NGC has certified each Wedge Tail Eagle available in this offer to be a First Releases (FR) coin, a designation that means they were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository within the first 30 days of the coin’s release.

As a final added touch, each coin available in this offer will come sonically sealed in a museum-quality acrylic holder and encapsulated with a label displaying the Australian Flag and personally signed by John Mercanti! A giant in the numismatic world, Mercanti has produced more coin and medal designs than any person in U.S. Mint history.
