The 2008 Australia 5 Dollars Discover Australia Dolphin gold coin is a graceful release from the Discover Australia series, struck in .9999 pure gold to proof quality. Dedicated to the dolphin, one of the most intelligent and beloved marine animals, it highlights the close connection between Australia and its coastal wildlife. The reverse features two dolphins swimming playfully in the ocean waves, one larger and one smaller, symbolizing family bonds and the vitality of the seas. Above them runs the inscription Discover Australia, while to the right is the year 2008, and below appear the words Dolphin, 1/25 oz, and 9999 Gold. The wavy background pattern enhances the sense of motion and life within the water. The obverse displays the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, encircled by the inscriptions Elizabeth II, Australia, and 5 Dollars. This issue forms part of the wider Discover Australia program dedicated to the country’s most iconic animals, offering a unique combination of natural heritage, numismatic artistry, and investment appeal.
