2021 $1 Dreaming Down Under Koala PNC

The Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) is one of Australia's most distinctive and loved native animals. The tree-dwelling marsupial is highly recognisable, with a compact, tailless body coloured silver-grey to brown, large tufted round ears, and a flat spoon-like nose. The Koala can grow to 60-85 centimetres in length and weigh up to around 15 kilograms, and those in the northern part of its broad range tend to be smaller than those in the south.
