    Some interesting ones to say the least!
    • Wedge Tailed Eagle available in new size 10oz and with a new John Mercanti design.
    • Emu returns in Silver
    • Dragon & Tiger Release (may be a follow-up to the Dragon & Phoenix from this year)
    • Swan will return in 2018.
    • 1 1/2 oz crocodile
    Other notables in gold/platinum include 1oz Platinum Wedge-Tailed Eagle and 1oz Gold Dragon & Phoenix/Swan

    Thanks for the link :)

    The description for the 2018 Kook sounds nice

    "The design on the 2018 Australian Kookaburra (1kg, 10oz, 1oz) silver bullion coins, consists of a circular border and in the foreground, partially obscuring the border is a representation of a kookaburra in mid-flight, a stylised representation of the moon in the background."

    There's quite a lot there that I will be getting to continue on with my current collections :)

    I can't see any mention of the ones you've listed above though? I see no mention of Dragon & Tiger, WTE, Swan 2018 and Emu?

    Will your shopping lists come with free milk spots?

    Or will they only show up as you're about to onsell them a year down the track?

    Dogs look good. That's about it. They need to move on from the kook. Yawn.

    Don't mind the look of the Dogs at all

    The Kookaburra and Koala look horrible, like really bad

    The eye of the Kookaburra gives it an overall bad look, and the Koala looks like a faceless boring slob!

    I'll def be buying the dogs. I think both silver and gold like great. Nothing else, however, for the first time. They seriously need to come up with a different series. The kook is overdone, kooked...

    Yes, that is a total disappointment. I was hoping to see the platinum design the same as the gold and in all the same sizes (or at least fractionals).
