Introducing the VERY FIRST legal tender coin. To feature the elusive Red-Eyed Tree Frog! The latest in the Australia at Night program features these diminutive, nocturnal amphibians under a full moon, struck in. One troy ounce of pure silver, with a proprietary black proof finish that simulates its nighttime habitat! We’re thrilled to bring you the latest wildlife masterpiece in the wildly popular Australia at Night program. The Red-Eyed Tree Frog! The Red-Eyed Tree Frog is making its international debut on a legal tender coin! That’s right, this is your first and, to date only, opportunity to add this intriguing amphibian to your numismatic zoo. Amphibians in general, and frogs in particular, are few and far between on coins, but the Red-Eyed Tree Frog is truly unique, coin-wise. Forget about princes, these frogs have turned into precious metal-far superior, in our humble opinion! An entire froggie family has been captured on this gorgeous pure silver coin with velvety black proof finish, under the silvery glow of the full moon. A female frog sports a young one on her back, protecting it, while the male in the foreground prepares to make a tasty meal of an unlucky moth. During they day, the Red-Eye Tree Frog lays low in the rainforests of north-eastern Australia. It comes out at night to feed, filling the nocturnal air with its loud and distinctive call-you’re far more likely to hear its ribbet than to see it, as it’s only two to three inches long! In equal parts rare, alluring, and superbly struck, this frog family is limited to a mintage of just 1,000. Like previous entries in the Australia at Night wildlife program. The Red-Eyed Tree Frog Black Proof is destined to sell out. And no, they don’t have red eyes because of jet-lag from the overnight; apparently those red eyes help them see better in the dark! For previous issues in the Australia at Night program. The mint-supplied photos are great, but this beauty looks even better in hand! Multiple levels of black proof finish make the frogs and full moon really pop! A frog family is front and center in its rainforest habitat. A female frog sports a young one on her back, protecting it, while the male in the foreground prepares to make a tasty meal of a passing moth. The scene features a proprietary black treatment to simulate the nighttime. The legends AUSTRALIA AT NIGHT and RED-EYED TREE FROG denote the theme. His Majesty, King Charles III, in profile effigy facing left. This portrait was executed by the engraver Jody Clark.
