2023 Azure Kingfisher $1 1oz Silver Proof Coin
Cloaked in stunning blue, violet and orange plumage, darting upon prey in a flash of colour from branches above the river or forest floor, the Azure Kingfisher is one of the smallest and most dazzling kingfishers in Australia!
This diminutive species inhabits the vegetation beside waterways and other wetlands where it often perches on low, overhanging branches, searching for its prey - captured by plunging into the water. Anglers on lonely rivers are sometimes surprised to find an Azure Kingfisher perched quietly on their fishing rods instead of a branch.
Like its subject, this masterful Niue legal tender coin displays a fusion of colour and stand-out features in 1oz of PURE 99.9% SILVER. Deploying the latest in Digital Colour application to create a spectacular tableau you won’t be able to tear your eyes from! Struck to Proof quality, the reverse depicts an Azure Kingfisher in full flight with its catch in its beak.
