The Australian Swan series debuted in 2017 and quickly gained recognition among collectors worldwide thanks to its annually changing reverse designs and limited mintages. For centuries, the swan has symbolized elegance, beauty, and harmony, while also referencing the Swan River, on which The Perth Mint is located.

Thanks to the use of high relief, the design gains exceptional depth and three-dimensionality, highlighting the finest details of the composition. The coin measures 50.60 mm in diameter, 11.85 mm in thickness, and has a face value of 8 Australian dollars. The mintage is limited to just 500 pieces worldwide.

Obverse features the effigy of King Charles III by Dan Thorne, along with the coin’s face value.

Reverse, designed by Aleysha Howarth, depicts a majestic swan with outstretched wings rising above calm waters and the surrounding landscape. The composition emphasizes the bird’s lightness and elegance, shown against a backdrop of clouds. The design also includes the year of issue, 2026, and The Perth Mint’s “P10” mintmark, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the Australian Swan series.
