The Australian Wedge Tail Eagle silver bullion coin collection debuted from the Perth Min 2014. For the first two years of availability, the same design was used on the reverse to depict the massive predatory bird species commonly found on the Australian continent. Beginning in 2016, the Perth Mint altered course to bring the series in line with other annual-release bullion by using a new design each year.

For that first new design, John M. Mercanti was hired to create a special and breathtaking depiction of the wedge tail eagle for the coin series. Mercanti was the 12th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint, serving in that position from May 2006 until his retirement in 2010. While working for the mint, he famously created designs for the 1984 Olympic gold ten dollar coin, 1986 Statue of Liberty Dollar coin, and the designs of five states in the circulation 50 State Quarters Program.

On the reverse of 2018 1 oz Silver Australian Wedge Tail Eagle Coins is the design Mercanti created as the third of his own work in the series, and fourth overall in the collection. It depicts a large, male eagle returning to the nest in the distance while a female eagle nuzzles close to the young hatchling found within.

The obverse of all Silver Australian Wedge Tail Eagle Coins in this collection bears the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. This is the fourth-generation design and was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley for original use on British coins and later use on commonwealth coinage.

Each 2018 1 oz Silver Australian Wedge Tail Eagle Coin here is certified Mint State 70 by the NGC, indicating full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws present. The Mercanti label is an exclusive deal with NGC where John M. Mercanti signed the labels included inside the slab.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com.

Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?
