Product Description
Celebrating the enchanting beauty of the Ulysses butterfly (Papilio ulysses), famed for its vivid, electric-blue wings that shimmer with iridescence, this collector's piece captures the magic of one of nature's most dazzling icons. The coin's coloured reverse features a magnificent Ulysses butterfly at its centre, accompanied by three smaller butterflies in flight, surrounded by vibrant depictions of native flora including the golden blooms of goodenia, pink blossoms of Euodia, Cape York lily, and the bower of beauty species. Included in the design is a ribbon scroll with the inscription 'BUTTERFLY', along with the coin's weight, purity, 2026 year-date, and The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark. The coin's obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, along with the monetary denomination. Each piece has been individually antiqued to give it a unique finish conveying the surface abrasions of an ancient artefact, making every single coin in the mintage entirely unique.
