The Australia 50 Cents Marine Life II Surgeonfish Colored Proof Silver Coin 2012 is a vivid tribute to the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef. Issued by the Perth Mint as part of the popular Marine Life II series, it captures the exotic beauty of one of the reef’s most recognizable inhabitants — the Surgeonfish. The reverse features a detailed, full-color image of a bright blue Surgeonfish with yellow fins, swimming against a stylized silver background with radiating wave-like lines. The inscriptions include AUSTRALIAN SEA LIFE II – THE REEF at the top and SURGEONFISH below, emphasizing the theme of marine biodiversity. On the obverse, the coin bears the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, surrounded by inscriptions ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA, 50 CENTS, 2012 and the purity mark 1/2 oz .999 Silver. This proof-quality coin combines artistic colorization with numismatic precision, making it both a collectible work of art and a celebration of Australia’s natural heritage. A must-have for marine life enthusiasts and silver coin collectors alike.
