Recognised by its wedge-shaped tail, the Wedge-tailed Eagle is Australia’s largest raptor, and one of the world’s biggest birds of prey. Standing over a metre tall, this massive bird has a wingspan of up to 2.2 metres and weighs up to 5 kilograms. Known for soaring high on thermal air currents, where it sights its prey before sweeping down on small mammals and carrion in a long swoop, the Wedge-tailed Eagle has an average lifespan in the wild of 6 years, with an average lifespan in captivity of 26 years.
A brilliant tribute to an internationally renowned Aussie icon, this official legal tender coin bears a design based on an illustration from The Birds of Australia. The first comprehensive ornithological survey of Australia, The Birds of Australia was created by ‘the Father of Australian Ornithology’, John Gould. As exclusive as it is eye-catching, the worldwide mintage has been set at a surprisingly low 750!
