Soar With 2024’s Edition Of The Eagle From Down Under!

Now in its 11th consecutive year, Australia’s Wedge-Tailed Eagle Series is back in 2024 with the ninth design from John Mercanti, 12th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. This year’s design shows Australia’s largest bird of prey from a unique perspective as if it were flying overhead, its giant wings spread and silhouetted by the sun. 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 2024-dated coin is struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% fine silver. It continues the series of the Perth Mint’s modern-day masterpieces with a Mercanti design that features an intricately designed image of the Wedge Tailed Eagle. With wings stretching to more than seven-and-a-half feet, Wedge Tail Eagles have one of the longest wingspans of any eagle in the entire world. The detail is so exquisite you can see every feather from the bird’s gigantic wings to its powerful fully feathered legs. The image is truly the prefect blend of design, precious metal, and collector appeal. What’s more, the 2024 edition is the first to feature the effigy of King Charles III, replacing the image of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away in 2022. Plus, each coin available in this offer comes in gorgeous Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition with razor-sharp details as fresh and crisp as the day it left the mint!

Previous Year’s Releases Are Sold Out At The Mint

The maximum worldwide mintage for this spectacular release has been set at just 50,000—the same limited edition as the previous coins issued from 2018 to 2023—mintages that are completely sold out at the mint! And, unless you can afford to travel all the way to Australia, the only place to secure one of these coins, is through GovMint and its marketing partners since we have the worldwide distribution rights outside of Australia!

This series has become a personal favorite of collectors around the world, both for the incredible Mercanti designs and its numismatic importance as the first-ever collaboration between a former U.S. Mint Chief Engraver and a foreign world mint. There’s still time to get on board the international phenomenon that is Australia’s Wedge-Tailed Eagle program. Click one—or several—of these pure silver coins to your collection and soar with the Eagle from Down Under!
