Signature series 

Australia’s most famous marsupial, the kangaroo has appeared on The Perth Mint’s signature coin series since 1990. Featuring superbly observed portrayals of the iconic animal, the Australian Kangaroo coin series has a reputation for quality, purity and design that extends around the globe.

High relief with colour

The coin’s high relief reverse portrays a coloured representation of a kangaroo lying on the ground, a restful position that helps it conserve energy during the hottest part of the day. Other coloured elements include a bounding kangaroo, a grass tree, and surrounding terrain. As well as the inscription ‘KANGAROO’, the design includes the coin’s weight, purity, 2025 year-date, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
