ROYAL WEDDING William Kate Silver Coin Proof 1$ Australia 2011

The coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality. The reverse design bears an official image of the happy couple, the beaming smiles on their jubilant faces realistically portrayed in colour. The design also includes an intricately-detailed, sculpture of Westminster Abbey in the background. As well as The Perth Mint's ‘P' mintmark, the reverse of the coin also features the inscriptions ‘Royal Wedding 29.04.2011' and ‘H.R.H. Prince William of Wales & Miss Catherine Middleton'. Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coin depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse, together with the 2011 year-date. Each coin is housed in a grey-coloured presentation case. The classic case comes in a white box-shipper featuring varnished representations of stylised roses. Silver-foiled lettering completes the luxurious feel.
