The Platinum Koala, first produced by the Perth Mint in 1988, is recognized as one of the world's most beautiful coins. The obverse of the coin, designed by Raphael Maklouf, depicts Queen Elizabeth II, and this design has remained unchanged since the coins' inception. The reverse of the coin has a koala design that has changed every year except for 1989.
The production of the Platinum Koala has aided Australia's platinum industry and popularized platinum coins for collectors and investors. The coin is comprised of .9995% pure platinum, which is one of the world's strongest and most precious metals. The Platinum Koala is a favorite among collectors because of its annual variation of design and its overall appeal.
Have fun

New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
