New Mercanti Design Is An Instant Classic This spectacular coin is the showcase for the ninth Wedge Tailed Eagle design from John Mercanti, 12th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. It shows Australia’s largest bird of prey from a unique perspective as if it were flying overhead, its giant wings spread and silhouetted by the sun. This series from the Perth Mint is a collectors’ favorite, both for the incredible Mercanti designs and for its numismatic importance as the first-ever collaboration between a former U.S. Mint Chief Engraver and a foreign world mint. It also features the inscription “10th ANNIVERARY AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE” along with the coin’s date, weight, and silver purity. The coin’s obverse features the effigy of King Charles III and a small Wedge Tailed Eagle inset at the top of the design that mimics the original 2014 release, a special one-year-only element reserved exclusively for the Wedge Tailed Eagle Proof coins. This intricate design is an instant classic. The detail is so exquisite you can see every feather from the bird’s gigantic wings to its powerful fully feathered legs. The image is truly the prefect blend of design, precious metal, and collector appeal. And with the addition of incredible High Relief (HR) designs that tower over the surface of the coin, this year’s eagle is soaring higher than ever! Plus, the coin was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields giving it a Proof finish that is unsurpassed in visual appeal.
