2013 Australia Half Oz Silver Bush Babies II Platypus Proof

2013 Australia Half Oz Silver Bush Babies II Platypus Proof

 Product Description:

Mind Me Platypus Duck, Bill!

As the Australian ditty implies, when folks first landed Down Under, they thought the platypus was some strange duck, because of its bill. Well, it's a mammal that feeds like a duck, thus the bill. They're strange, they're odd, and well, they're cute as all heck when they're on this 2013 Australia Bush Babies Silver Proof. It's the latest in the Bush Babies series. Struck in a half-ounce of proof 99.9% silver, it shows a baby platypus in color, happily munching away. These coins are extremely popular. The first five Bush Babies coins all sold out at the mint, and with only 10,000 minted, the platypus proofs could swim away fast. Don't miss out!
