One of the more popular trends over the last few years has been to photograph newborns asleep in a basket. The Perth Mint has taken this idea and applied a clever spin to it: instead of human infants, they depict various adorable baby animals in the land of nod. The Dreaming Down Under series consists of five coins total, and the one in this listing features a baby koala. Right now, 2021 1/2 oz Proof Colorized Silver Australian Dream Down Under Koala Coins are available to purchase online at Silver.com.

There is something utterly precious about seeing a sleeping infant. The feeling you get when you encounter one is not limited to human infants, either. Baby animals sleeping are also quite adorable, which is why the Perth Mint decided to make the entire series around this theme. The Dream Down Under series consists of five coins in total, all of which depict incredibly cute marsupials fast asleep. If you’d like to feel some positive, heartfelt emotions, then this series is for you.
Queen Elizabeth II is shown on the obverse side of 2021 Proof Colorized Silver Australian Dream Down Under Koala Coins. She is shown in right-profile relief wearing the Coronation Necklace and the George IV State Diadem. The initials JC are shown for the portrait’s designer Jody Clark. Across the edge of the coin are the words Elizabeth II, Australia, 50 Cents, 2021.
A baby koala is depicted on the reverse of 2021 1/2 oz Proof Colorized Dream Down Under Koala Coins. This Joey has its eyes closed and appears fast asleep on its back. Its legs are curled, and its arms are resting on its chest. The koala is lying against a white fleece inside a twig basket with decorative flowers on the sides. The coin’s weight and purity are inscribed on the reverse as well.
