A new coin.
The Australia 5 Dollars “Southern Sky — Orion” silver coin (2014) celebrates one of the night sky’s most iconic constellations. Part of the acclaimed Southern Sky program, it captures the beauty of astronomy in a dramatic proof strike certified by NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. The reverse is a colored star chart: bright, polished stars form Orion over a gradient sky from ember-red to deep black, encircled by a ring with SOUTHERN SKY, ORION, and celestial coordinates (RA/Dec)—like a miniature telescope reticle. The obverse presents the elegant effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley with inscriptions ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA, the year 2014, and the denomination 5 DOLLARS. Orion—known since antiquity as the hunter—guides navigators and stargazers across the southern heavens, making this piece a blend of myth, science, and art. Struck in silver with mirror fields and frosted devices, this limited collector issue is a top-grade showpiece for themes of astronomy, space and Australian numismatics—ready to anchor a premium collection.
