Details
Brumby is the term for Australia’s wild horse. Brumbies that most famously roam the Australian Alps are descended from lost, abandoned or escaped horses that in many cases belonged to early colonial settlers like James Brumby. According to tradition, James Brumby was transferred from Sydney to Van Diemen’s Land in 1801, he was forced to release a number of horses into the bush, now known as Brumby’s horses.
Free-roaming, independent and naturally adapted to its rugged environment, the brumby has become a national icon seen by many as symbolic of Australia's national character. Struck from 1 troy oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin has a maximum mintage of 25,000.
