The Black Swan is the only swan species native to Australia, distinguished by its striking black plumage contrasting with a bright red bill. This iconic species is widespread across the southern half of Australia, from Western Australia through to Tasmania and up the east coast, adapting to various wetland habitats. Black Swans typically form monogamous pairs and are known for their graceful appearance and distinctive calls.

The obverse of the 2025 Australian Gold Swan presents the Perth Mint’s first-generation portrait of King Charles III. This depiction, introduced in 2024 and designed by Dan Thorne, shows King Charles III in left-profile relief without a crown.

On the reverse of the 2025 1oz Gold Swan Coin, a new image portrays a swan standing in the calm shallows of a lake. With wings extended outward, the swan is framed by a backdrop of rising mountains, where the sun crests over a valley.
