Struck and issued by The Perth Mint, this coin depicts the now extinct Tasmanian Tiger. The largest modern-day predatory mammal in Australia, it was the Tiger's hunting instincts that saw local livestock farmers hunt it out if existence... Though sightings are reported regularly, it is considered officially extinct in 2022.
Housed in the presentation case of issue, and in perfect condition after 11 years, the Tasmanian Tiger silver coin was struck by The Perth Mint to a limited mintage of 5,000.
