Bounding kangaroo

Australia's most recognised animal symbol, the kangaroo has been regularly portrayed on Australian coins, tokens and medallions since the 1850s. Honouring the historic precedent, The Perth Mint began crafting outstanding gold coins featuring annual designs of the famous marsupial in 1989. From 1 kilo down to this 0.5g release, there's a gold kangaroo coin suitable for almost every buyer.

Miniature kangaroo design

The coin portrays a miniaturised image of a kangaroo and its joey bounding across a grassy outback plain with hillocks on the horizon. Included on the reverse is The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark.
