The Australian Emu was first released in 2018, a year after the Australian Swans. It is yet another recognition for one of Australia's iconic birds.

Emus are large birds standing up to 6 feet tall, with long necks, piercing eyes, and shaggy feathers. They are the second-largest bird on the planet- the first is the ostrich. Emus have strong legs and can sprint up to 30 miles per hour. And although Emus run fast, and can swim, they can't fly! They have a booming voice, distinct, deep, and reverberating, that can be heard 2 kilometers away!

Emus are reflected in Australia's coat of arms as well as in coins, symbolic of resiliency, adaptability, and progress (because Emus can't walk backwards).

This is the first time that Perth Mint shows five chicks in the Emu coin! Which emu parent is most likely shown below, the father emu or the mother emu?

The Emu coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act.

In 2018, I was not particularly keen on collecting this series. I bought it because it was a coin by Perth Mint. Through the years, I've fallen in love with the coins. I certainly look forward to next year's Australia Siver Emu coin.
