Cultural and Conservation Significance
In Aboriginal Australian culture, koalas are spiritually significant, often depicted in Dreamtime stories as symbols of wisdom and a deep connection to the land. However, koalas were once hunted extensively for their fur in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, leading to a significant population decline. Today, conservation efforts, including habitat protection and anti-poaching laws, have helped stabilize their numbers, although they still face threats from habitat loss and disease.
Detailed Coin Features
- Brilliant Uncirculated Condition: All 2024 1 Kilo Australian Silver Koala Coins are in BU condition.
- Obverse Design: King Charles III’s debut portrait, created by Dan Thorne, showcases the new king in a left-profile relief without a crown.
- Reverse Design: Designed by Ing Ing Jong, the reverse depicts a koala clinging to a gum tree trunk.
Despite ongoing conservation efforts, koalas continue to face threats from urbanization, deforestation, wildfires, and climate change. These factors pose significant risks to their primary food source, eucalyptus trees, affecting their habitat and survival.
