2021 Brumby 2 Oz Silver Proof Perth Mint
Limited-edition 2 oz silver displaying Brumby bucking in the outback! According to tradition, when soldier and pastoralist James Brumby was transferred from Sydney to Van Diemen's Land in 1801, he was forced to release a number of horses into the Australian Outback. Known as Brumby's horses and later as'brumbies', the word came to mean wild horses. Mobs of brumbies that most famously roam the Australian Alps today are descended from lost, abandoned or escaped horses that in many cases belonged to early British settlers like Brumby.
Wild, independent, and successfully inhabiting a hostile environment, the brumby has become a national icon seen by many as symbolic of our national character. With just 1,000 made and a complete sellout on day 1 from the Perth mint, these are sure to be hot issues! This item is in the category "Coins & Paper Money\Coins: World\Collections, Lots". The seller is "coinstv" and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
