| Aanvullende informatie |
The Discover Australia series launched by Perth Mint in 2009 was built around endemic fauna, and the green and gold bell frog earned its place partly through ecological irony: once abundant across southeastern Australia, it had become locally extinct in much of its historical range by the time this coin was struck. The species gained unexpected notoriety in the 1990s when a colony was discovered surviving on the grounds of the Homebush Bay Olympic site in Sydney — delaying construction and triggering federal environmental review.
The 1/25 oz format was Perth's standard entry-level gold denomination for the series, aimed squarely at the collector rather than the bullion buyer.
