The 2026 Turtle Yaunati 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin from The Perth Mint celebrates the profound significance of turtles in Indigenous Australian culture. Created in collaboration with award-winning artist Chern'ee Sutton, this coin honours turtles as powerful totems linked to creation, wisdom, longevity, and the deep connection to land and sea. The coin's coloured reverse depicts several turtles surrounded by symbolic elements representing their journey through time, water, and connection to Country.

Circles represent water holes and the ocean, while a trail of turtles symbolises the ocean currents followed during migration. Jellyfish, their primary food source, and dotted circles representing generations of turtles tell the story of life's cycle across past, present and future. A trail of eggs in the sand completes the design, denoting the turtle's return to its birthplace to begin a new cycle of renewal. Struck from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin has been individually antiqued to give it the appearance of an ancient artefact, meaning each piece may vary slightly in finish. Presented in a striking display case with an illustrated shipper and accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, this coin is strictly limited to 2,000 pieces worldwide.
