Koala Series 2026 50c Uncirculated Coin

The Royal Australian Mint's 2026 Koala Series celebrates one of Australia's most loved and recognisable species worldwide. The third release in the series marks the second time the 50c uncirculated coin — sold predominantly in Australia — has featured this beloved marsupial.

Discover the quiet charm of one of Australia's most iconic native animals with this exquisitely designed uncirculated coin, featuring three koalas in their natural eucalyptus sanctuary. Koalas are known for their gentle nature and tree-dwelling lifestyle, spending most of their lives feeding on eucalyptus leaves and sleeping peacefully in the branches. This coin captures their serene habitat in stunning detail.

The Design

The reverse design by L. Ashe showcases three koalas nestled among eucalyptus branches in a uniquely Australian composition. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by designer D. Thorne.

Presented as a coin in card, this limited mintage release of just 15,000 offers collectors and admirers of Australian wildlife a beautifully crafted keepsake.
