Austrailian Stock Horse 2015 - 1oz Silver Bullion Coin - Perth Mint

The Australian stock horse is known for its endurance, stamina and loyalty so these beautifully designed 1oz Silver Stock Horse coins from the Perth Mint are a fitting tribute. The Perth Mint is known for its premium grade products and the Australian Stock Horse silver coin is an excellent example. The reverse carries an annually changing image of the Australian stock horse while the obverse features the famous portrait of HM Elizabeth II by Sir Ian Rank Broadley.

An icon in Australia, the admired Australian Stock Horse was originally a combination of several breeds including the Thoroughbred, Arab, and Timor and Welsh Mountain ponies. Although they were initially used for stock work and exploration by the early settlers, more than 120,000 Australian Stock Horses went on to serve in the First World War. Their strength, stamina and courage earned them international recognition as the finest cavalry mounts in the world and established their place in Australian history and folklore.

The Perth Mint has a history of striking limited run bullion coins for some of the bigger dealers around the world. In early 2013, the debut coin in what was purported to be a new ten-coin series launched and became a near instant hit. Produced for a large German dealer, EMK Munzen & Edelmetalle, the Australian Stock Horse is a standard silver one-ounce coin with a mintage limited to just 10,000 pieces. Early coins were struck in 0.999 silver, but from 2016 onwards the mint has carried on its process of moving over to 0.9999 fineness. As of 2017 it has been confirmed that the series will end after five coins, so our guide is complete.
