Since 2014, John M. Mercanti has completed nine designs for the internationally popular Wedge-tailed Eagle Series. Formerly the 12th Chief Engraver of the US Mint, the renowned American sculptor and engraver produced more coin and medal designs than any other employee in that organisation’s history.
The coin’s reverse comprises eight illustrations of Australia’s largest bird of prey, a distinctive raptor easily identified by its wedge-shaped tail and fully feathered legs. Included in the design is the inscription ‘AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE’, and a ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary in 2024.
The obverse depicts the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, and the monetary denomination. Incorporated in the design is a privy mark representation of John M. Mercanti’s original design for the Wedge-tailed Eagle Series, first issued in 2014.
Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin is housed in a presentation case and themed shipper.
