2022 Barbados $5 3-oz Silver Colours of Wildlife Koala High Relief Antiqued Coin

This Koala Found Its Way to Barbados

One of the most adorable animals in the world is Australia’s cuddly koala bear. This seemingly lethargic little marsupial would rather rest in the crook of a eucalyptus tree chowing down on leaves than do almost anything else—except maybe complaining about Qantas airlines! But perhaps the little fellow depicted on this coin booked a flight on the Australian-based airline and flew to Barbados to become the star attraction in this, the second release in the Colours of Wildlife series.

Engaging Koala Design Will Be A Standout In Your Collection

Struck in three ounces of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, this $5 Barbados legal-tender coin is absolutely gorgeous! The high relief design of an Australian Koala on the reverse is enhanced with an almost mystical-looking translucent green enamel coating that provides the illusion that the koala is hanging from a Eucalyptus tree. The obverse features the Barbados Coat of Arms encircled by a variety of exotic animals, including a koala, tiger, cheetah, baboon, and other wildlife. The obverse also displays the coin’s denomination, weight, and purity. Meanwhile, the hand-applied antiquing process gives this coin an appealing look that will make it a bonafide standout in your collection.
