2 Dollars - Elizabeth II 6th Portrait - Australian Brumby - Silver Proof - High Relief

The brumby occupies an awkward place in Australian environmental policy — a feral population descended from escaped and released horses, simultaneously romanticized in bush poetry and condemned by ecologists for the damage they cause to alpine ecosystems. The debate over culling in Kosciuszko National Park was actively legislated in New South Wales in 2018, making the choice of subject here quietly political. Perth chose the high-relief format for this issue, a technique that demands significantly more die pressure and produces sharper depth across the fields — a method rarely used in Australian bullion or proof programs outside of flagship releases.
