of extraordinary animals Australia’s fauna is very different from that of the other continents, which is partly due to its geographic isolation. For example, 83% of mammals are endemic and there are more reptile species in Australia than in any other country in the world. Furthermore, it is the only continent without native felines. This complete coin set of the Australian Dollar focuses on some of the country’s unique animals. The obverses feature the fourth Australian portrait of former British Queen Elizabeth II. The reverses depict a short beaked echidna, a superb lyrebird, a platypus, the national coat of arms, an indigenous Australian, and kangaroos. – Including 12-sided coin – Portrait of Queen Elizabeth II – Coins from the oldest continent in the world
