Struck by Australia’s precious metal specialists, the Perth Mint, this landmark release forms a dramatic tribute to one of Australia’s most deadly inhabitants – the notorious Tiger Snake. Recognised by its distinctive yellow & black banding, the Tiger Snake is large and extremely venomous. Indeed, approximately 50% of those suffering an untreated Tiger Snake bite die as a result, and, in terms of snakebite deaths in Australia, this lethal serpent is second only to the Brown Snake.
