The Australian 1 oz Gold Kangaroo Coin is the epitome of all things Australian — the great outdoors, unique fauna, and gold.
It is minted in pure gold to the exacting standards set forth by the Perth Mint. On its reverse surface, this famous gold coin features a kangaroo, one of the most recognizable and cherished symbols of the Australian outback where gold has been mined in commercial quantities since 1851. The Perth Mint’s traditional "P" mintmark also appears on this surface.
The obverse surface the coin bears an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and inscriptions of the face value and purity. Being legal tender under the Currency Act of 1965, these gold bullion coins are guaranteed by the Government of Australia.
Founded in 1899, the Perth Mint is an official minting authority of the Australian Government. Fully owned by the state government of Western Australia, The Perth Mint has maintained an outstanding reputation for fine gold coins and bars among bullion buyers worldwide.
