2 Dollars - Elizabeth II 6th Portrait - Crocodile with Hatchling - Silver Bullion - High Relief

The "Crocodile with Hatchling" belongs to Perth Mint's ongoing push into the high-relief bullion segment, where collector premiums justify the additional die pressure and production time required to achieve the depth of field. High-relief strikes of this size — a two-troy-ounce planchet — demand careful annealing cycles to prevent cracking at the rim during the multiple strikes needed to fully raise the design.

Perth's adoption of the sixth Jody Clark portrait of Elizabeth II, introduced across Commonwealth mints from 2015 onward, placed this issue among the first Australian bullion pieces to carry it.
