This gold bee-auty is a spectacular celebration of the 200th anniversary of the Australian Honey Bee.
The honey bee, Apis mellifera, first arrived in Australia in 1822 at Sydney Cove aboard the ship Isabella. Ever since then, like all immigrants, their industrious efforts have helped to build and shape our great nation! These hard-working insects have not only blessed Australians with delicious honey in an industry that is valued at around $90 million annually, but also played a vital role in the Australian economy, by pollinating crops and being a key part of our agricultural and horticultural industries.
This alluring coin is a very worthy tribute to one of nature’s greatest miracles! A gorgeous design on a large 38.60mm flan depicts three detailed honey bees extracting pollen from Australia’s native Eucalyptus flower. Superbly struck to Proof quality from 99.9% PURE SILVER, the deliciously dripping honeycomb, and the accents on the bees themselves, have been cleverly finished-off in GENUINE 24-CARAT GOLD.
Only 1,000 of these important coins have been issued worldwide! You will definitely feel the sting of disappointment if you miss this opportunity to add one to you collection.
