Australian waters host some of the most famous reef systems in the world. From spectacular tropical corals to towering forests of kelp, these dynamic environments are teeming with aquatic life. Celebrating five fascinating reef dwellers, this stunning collector series now includes a release portraying a Seahorse.

The 2010-dated coin is struck from 1/2oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality.
