Historical Context: The 2023 Australian 30 Dollars Platinum Bullion Coin, featuring the Australian Sea Lion, is historically significant. It displays the Jody Clark Sixth Portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, made poignant by her passing in September 2022. Dated 2023, this portrait marks a transitional numismatic period, representing her final reign year on many Commonwealth coinages. This issue underscores Australia's monarchical connection while celebrating its unique natural heritage—a common Royal Australian Mint bullion theme highlighting distinctive wildlife.
Artistry: The obverse features Jody Clark's refined Sixth Portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, facing right, adorned with the George IV State Diadem. This effigy exemplifies detailed realism, a modern royal portraiture style. The reverse, by the Royal Australian Mint's artistic team, showcases a naturalistic Australian Sea Lion (Neophoca cinerea). Its stylistic approach emphasizes anatomical accuracy, capturing the animal dynamically. This aligns with contemporary wildlife art, prioritizing detailed representation and environmental context.
Technical/Grading: Struck in .9995 fine platinum, this 10.38-gram bullion coin requires a precise strike. Obverse high-points: Queen Elizabeth II's diadem details and hair contours. Reverse high-points: sea lion's musculature, facial features, and fur texture. A premium strike demonstrates full detail in these areas, without weakness. Expect brilliant fields contrasting with frosted or finely textured design elements, indicative of quality RAM bullion strike. Minor handling marks are common.
