The iconic platypus is the fourth design featured in the exciting Australian Map Shaped Coin Series.

The platypus is a semi-aquatic mammal endemic to eastern Australia. With its duck-bill, beaver-tail and otter-like feet, the platypus’ unusual appearance baffled naturalists when they first encountered it, with some even considering it a fraud!

The coin’s unique, map-shaped, coloured reverse depicts a classically struck design of a platypus set against a tropical rainforest setting with a waterfall and river. The inscription PLATYPUS also appears in the design with The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark.
