Story

Emblematic animal

The Perth Mint’s signature coin series portrays annual designs of our most emblematic animal. Tens of millions of these fascinating marsupials known for their pouches and bounding motion live and breed in vast swathes of Australian desert, forest, and bushland habitats.

Coloured design

The coin’s prominent kangaroo motif is meticulously coloured in orange-brown hues typical of the species found in the Red Centre. Other coloured elements include eucalyptus and grass trees which contribute to the unique outback flavour of this iconic collectable. As well as the inscription ‘KANGAROO’ and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, the reverse also incorporates the coin’s weight, purity and 2023 year-date.
