The Artist:
The creator of the original artwork for both the coins and the colorful, outer boxes for the
Celebrate Australia series
is Elise Martinson. Elise is an Australian artist, graphic designer, and illustrator who loves
animals
(as you can see from her photo!). After studying multimedia design for four years and then working for year and a half as a graphic designer, she became eager to follow her dreams of creating 3D art for games or movies. Realizing that the limiting factor to 2D and 3D artwork was not software knowledge, but rather the ability to create concepts and accurately render them, she is now dedicated to further cultivating her drawing ability. Elise currently designs both coins and graphic artwork for the Perth Mint, and still hopes to break into the games industry one day as a concept or production artist. Three of her better-known projects for the Mint are the
Outer Space Dollars 9-Coin Set
, the
Backyard Bugs 9-Coin Set
and the
Bush Babies Program
. Elise was formerly a resident of Melbourne, Victoria but now resides in Perth, Western Australia. Here are links for Elise Martinson's
online blog
and her
professional website

Investment Note:
We like this set for several reasons. Each coin is large (40.60 mm diameter), struck in
pure silver
, and is very handsomely
colored
.
Animals
represent perhaps the absolutely most popular theme with collectors, and this set has animals in spades! Finally,
the mintage limit for this 4-Coin
Celebrate Australia Special Edition Silver Proof
Set is exceedingly low
- only 2,000. Don't delay, we recommend these great colored silver proofs
