AMS to Distribute Exclusive 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs in North America

Asset Marketing Services (AMS), a leading retailer of collectible coins, has secured distribution rights for the 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs from Australia's Perth Mint in North America. This exclusive release marks the tenth anniversary of the Wedge-Tailed Eagle series, designed by John Mercanti, former Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint. The series has historically been a significant success, generating nearly $100 million in sales in the region since its inception in 2014.

The new coins feature a majestic soaring eagle and include a special obverse depicting King Charles III, the first such portrait on Australian currency. Moreover, the proofs commemorate the Perth Mint's 125th anniversary with a special 'P125' mint mark, deviating from the traditional Perth Mint mark. Collectors will find features such as a gold gilded design on the one-ounce Silver Wedge-Tailed Eagles, and each coin is graded by NGC as Proof-70 Ultra Cameo.

AMS expects these coins to sell out quickly, reflecting confidence in their market appeal and the continued popularity of the Wedge-Tailed Eagle series. "This release embodies what AMS excels at, delivering world-class precious metal coins to the U.S. market," states Ted Smetana, AMS’s Chief Commercial Officer of Merchandising.
