A trio of adult red kangaroos begins their passage across a desolate stretch of the Great Australian Desert, while an Inland Taipan snake lurks in its rocky habitat and the sun bakes the landscape with its merciless rays. This one troy ounce pure silver proof is enhanced by artistic application of rose-gold plating. And so begins your great Australian adventure, into the unforgiving Outback! This pure silver gem is a sizzling hot testament to the wide-open spaces, forbidding landscape, and unique animal life that exist in just one place on Earth-the Great Australian Desert! This breathtaking design represents your chance to add a piece of Australia’s Outback to your collection! The Great Australian Desert is the inland region of Australia, with some serious heat and very little rain. It’s HUGE-it covers more than 35% of the Land Down Under. The intense heat bakes the earth, making the very air shimmer and mirages appear. It’s all otherworldly. Very little rain visits the interior. With 40% of Australia covered by dunes, it’s the driest inhabited continent, with the least fertile soils. Not surprisingly, the Great Australian Desert is sparsely inhabited-Australia has a population more than 26 million people, but less than 3% (fewer than 800,000 folks) live in the vast regions of the Outback desert. Also not surprisingly, the Great Australian Desert sports the largest population of feral camels in the world! On this unique coin, pure silver kangaroos bound across the red sand expanse of the mythic Outback, as a meticulously detailed Inland Taipan snake lies in wait in the foreground, and the merciless sun radiates its rose gold rays across the horizon. Make this dramatic and striking one troy ounce pure silver proof yours today! The Great Australian Desert. The Great Australian desert, or Outback, stretches across the arid interior of Australia, a varied collection of stark rock outcroppings juxtaposed with hauntingly barren red sands that lend the landscape an otherworldly aura. In fact, American astronaut Buzz Aldrin remarked that the deserts in Australia appeared similar to those where humanity may one day venture-on Mars. At once harsh and beautiful, this ancient land has been home to Australia’s Indigenous Aboriginal peoples for upwards of 50,000 years, as witnessed by their rock paintings and petroglyphs. The incomparable sense of space is witness to some of the most unique animals on earth, including kangaroos, wallabies, emus-as well as more dangerous inhabitants like the Inland Taipan Snake (lurking in the foreground; read on below). The Inland Taipan Snake-The Deadliest in the World! The venom of the Inland Taipan is by far the most toxic of any snake in the world, much more so than even that of sea snakes, and it has the most toxic venom of any reptile when tested on human heart cell cultures. The Inland Taipan is a specialist hunter of mammals, so its venom is specially adapted to kill warm-blooded prey. One bite possesses enough lethality to kill more than 100 adult humans. It is an extremely fast and agile snake that can strike instantly and with extreme accuracy, often biting multiple times in the same attack, with a nearly 100% rate of envenomation. The scene is enhanced by artistic application of rose-gold plating, while the legend GREAT AUSTRALIAN DESERT indicates the theme. The public seal (coat of arms) of the island nation of Niue. The slogan ATUA NIUE TUKULAGI translates as “God, Niue Forever”. The date of issue and denomination also appear, while the legend 1 OZ 999 SILVER guarantees the weight and purity. The coin is encapsulated inside a luxurious clamshell-style presentation case, lined with black velvet and satin, and protected by a full color outer cardboard box. An individually-numbered certificate of authenticity is included. The image of the back side of the certificate is a mint-supplied image intended for general reference only. The serial number in the image is NOT indicative of the serial number you will receive! Proof with Selective Rose-Gold Plating. 999 Fine (Pure) Silver.

2023 Niue MTV Beavis and Butt-Head Great Cornholio 1oz Silver Coin. I need TP for my bunghole! To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of the iconic Beavis and Butt-Head animated comedy series, GR Reserve is excited to present 2023 Beavis and Butt-Head 30th Anniversary 1oz Beavis Cornholio Shaped Silver Coin. This coin is struck in a unique shape to replicate a detailed portrayal of Beavis – one of the main characters of the Beavis and Butt-Head animated comedy series. Beavis is a fictional character who serves as one of two protagonists from Beavis and Butt-Head comedy series, which was originally broadcast by MTV in 1993. The Great Cornholio is the hyperactive alter-ego of Beavis. Cornholio is an iconic aspect of the series, and arguably the most popular. When Beavis consumes large quantities of sugar, caffeine and other stimulants, he will begin to exhibit symptoms of convulsions, rapidly shake his head, and gaze cross-eyed at his own fist. When Beavis turns into Cornholio, he will raise his forearms in a 90-degree angle next to his chest, pull his shirt over his head, and then begin to yell or scream erratically, producing a stream of gibberish and strange noises. No more than 1,000 of the 2023 Beavis and Butt-Head 30th Anniversary – 1oz Beavis Cornholio Shaped Silver Coin will be released. The coin’s obverse features the Niue Coat of Arms, the year-date and the monetary denomination. Sorry, our items are NOT available for pick-up. No additional information at this time.
