The Perth Mint has previously released kangaroo-inspired designs on its coins, but there has never been a consistent bullion coin program featuring the creature. The Australian Silver Kookaburra coin created immense interest in Perth Mint bullion coins, and the more recent Australian Silver Koala built upon that success.
Kangaroos are one of the most beloved creatures from the Australian continent, and are well known around the world as a symbol of the nation. With its distinctive movement and massive, powerful tail, the kangaroo is a unique creature. It is also the largest marsupial in the world today.
The obverse of each coin bears the hallmarks of all Perth Mint coins. Queen Elizabeth II’s right-profile portrait is surrounded by inscriptions of her name, the nation of issue, and the coin’s face value.
