2021 1oz Australian Shipwreck Series - Zeewijk Silver Antiqued Coin

The fourth and final release in the Australian Shipwreck series featuring the Zeewijk. For the first time in bullion, the series will feature coins that are triangular-shaped in design. The Zeewijk follows on from the first three popular releases in the series featuring the Batavia, Gilt Dragon and Zuytdorp.

The exquisite design of the reverse conveys two scenes to communicate the journey of the Zeewijk. With the image of the ship viewed upright, the Zeewijk is shown setting sail in its full glory. Flipping the coin to view the text of ‘1727’ and ‘Zeewijk' upright depicts the ship in its final state capsized shortly after wrecking in 1727. The obverse design depicts scenes from the dramatic story of the Zeewijk.
