It is hard to call any one individual species from the Australian continent entirely unique. The continent is home to countless unique species that you wont find living in the wild somewhere else. For example, marsupials are native to the Australian continent and included creatures like the kangaroo, koala, quokka, and the wombat. Several of these creatures are depicted in the Dreaming Down Under Series.

Obverse

On the obverse of 2021 Proof Colorized Australian Dreaming Down Under Wombat 1/2 oz Silver Coins is a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. In this right-profile portrait, Her Majesty is shown at the age of 89 with the George IV State Diadem Crown on her head. The design was created for the Royal Mint in 2015 by Jody Clark and has featured on Australian coins since 2018. Inscriptions on this field read ELIZABETH II, 2021, AUSTRALIA, and 50 CENTS.

Reverse

The reverse field of 2021 Proof Colorized Australian Dreaming Down Under Wombat Silver Coins features a sleeping wombat. The wombat, like other marsupials, grows up spending a good deal in its mothers pouch as it is nurtured and grows. Unlike other marsupials, the pouch on the wombat is reverse so the mother can dig forward while tunneling without harming the baby. Inscriptions on this side include 1/2 OZ, 9999, SILVER, and the P mint mark of the Perth Mint.

History

The designs in the Dreaming Down Under Series all share common reverse design elements. These images include a twig basket with white-fleece lining and colorized visuals throughout the reverse field.
