As with the first ever $1 coin, launched on the 14th of May 1984, this exquisitely struck 99.9% Silver Proof carries the classic Mob of Kangaroos design – created by Australian numismatic master-craftsman, Stuart Devlin. Employing a thick flan, and utilising the latest in world-class minting technology, the RAM has taken Devlin’s inspiring work to a new level. With the RAM’s unprecedented High Relief strike sharply accentuating the detail of a design always noted for its bold muscularity, this internationally renowned coin motif has never looked better.
Crafted from a troy ounce of 99.9% silver, and spanning 32mm in diameter, this groundbreaking Australian legal tender coin will naturally be a must-have for so many collectors. Indeed, as with other recent RAM ‘firsts’ – such as the 2012 $5 Curved Silver Proof and 2013 $5 Triangle Silver Proof – we expect that such a pioneering precious metal Proof will see the mintage of 10,000 smashed by demand.
