2013 Black Caviar - Perfection - 1oz Silver Proof Set
After an unbeaten run of 25 top level race wins, Black Caviar, one of the most popular and successful horses in Australian racing history, was retired. Rarely in Australian sport does a champion capture the collective imagination of the entire nation. Rarer still, i that champion a horse. Not since Phar Lap has an Australian thoroughbred horse dominated the international racing scene so thoroughly and with such grace. Few who witnessed her first win at Flemington in 2009 could have known just how special she would be. The thousands who turned out four years later to say farewell all longed to see her race just once more.

This 2 coin set consists of:
- Cook Islands 2012 1oz 99.9% Silver Proof, struck by the Royal Mint
