Malawi's wildlife-themed legal tender issues of the mid-2000s were produced under licensing arrangements with the Perth Mint, explaining why an Australian marsupial appears on currency from a landlocked southern African nation. The Schön 118 series spans multiple years and animals, with individual entries distinguished by sub-number — the .12 suffix placing this squarely within that run.
At 1.24 grams, this is fractional bullion in the strictest sense, produced for collector sale rather than any circulation purpose.
