Australian Koala 2012 Gold Proof Coin Series (2oz coin and 1oz high relief coin not available in the USA) What can you expect to see, well the normal koala design for 2012 -- but in gold not silver as shown, the traditional wood lid box and green colour packaging pictures shown are from 2011 to give an idea.  Australian Kangaroo 2012 1oz Silver Proof High Relief Coin

There doesn't appear to be any pictures of the Siberian Tiger 1oz Silver coin yet, although with its release being imminent, I would imagine you won't be waiting long...

2012 Deadly and Dangerous, huh? I kinda thought that series has ended, for some reason. Any idea what they're featuring?
Not the same series but I just bought the Tasmanian Tiger, today. Wasn't cheap but I missed it when it came out so I'm glad I could remedy my mistake.

I'm led to believe that the following picture will form the basis of the artwork used for the Siberian Tiger coin:

Thanks for the list AC. My pick would probably be the stone fish. But it might be tough to capture its essence with the fish's camouflaging ability. Not sure how they'd get around that at Perth.
