A spellbinding synthesis of precious metals, this superbly designed gold-plated Silver Proof coin forms a unique, affordable tribute to one of Australia’s most internationally renowned coin series – the Australian Gold Nugget Program.

The Perth Mint’s very first gold coin collector series, the Gold Nugget Program began in 1986. An inspired concept, the series celebrated famous gold nuggets unearthed in Australia. The first Gold Nugget Program 1oz coin depicted the Welcome Stranger – the largest gold nugget ever recorded, discovered by John Deason and Richard Oates in Moliagul in 1869. The work of iconic designer Stuart Devlin, that original portrayal of the Welcome Stranger is found on this unique 40th anniversary tribute!

Struck to flawless Proof quality from 99.99% silver, the broad 40.90mm flan features Devlin’s portrayal of the Welcome Stranger set upon a map of Australia, united with a burst of stylised sun rays. The perfect finishing touch, the Welcome Stranger motif, the rim and the edge have all been plated in 24-carat gold! A very special addition, each coin also carries a unique, one-year-only ‘P40’ anniversary mintmark!

Official Australian legal tender, bearing Daniel Thorne’s portrait of King Charles III, the limited edition of the Gold Nugget Program 40th Anniversary 2026 $1 Gold-plated 1oz Silver Proof Coin has been set at just 4,500. With our allocation tightly restricted, and huge demand anticipated, we must – in the interests of fairness – enforce a limit of one coin per household.
