Often called the blue emperor or blue mountain swallowtail, this magnificent species is native to the lush tropical regions of Australia, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, and the Solomon Islands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a wingspan reaching up to 14 cm, the Ulysses butterfly reveals a brilliant blue flash in flight, while the soft brown underside of its wings provides natural camouflage when at rest. Its radiant colouration is created by microscopic scales that reflect and refract light — a natural phenomenon beautifully echoed in the artistry of this coin. Frequently seen gliding through rainforest canopies and vibrant gardens, especially near native citrus trees, the Ulysses butterfly is a symbol of transformation, vitality, and the wonder of the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Perth Mint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48462157775093,"sku":"26Y51AAA","price":425.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/7802\/1365\/files\/01-4060-Butterfly-2026-2oz-Silver-Antiqued-Coloured-Coin-on-edge-LowRes.png?v=1784804320","url":"https:\/\/collectablesemporium.au\/products\/2026-2oz-butterfly-silver-antiqued-coloured-coin","provider":"Collectables Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
