Featuring one of Australia’s most iconic and well-recognised bush creatures, this Australian Kangaroo high relief release is an exceptional and limited offering.
Struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.99% pure gold in high relief proof quality, this coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 500 of the 2015 Australian Kangaroo 1oz Gold Proof High Relief Coin.
The coin’s reverse depicts an adult kangaroo bounding across an Australian landscape at dusk, with the moon and trees in the background. The design includes the inscription AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the 2015 year-date. The Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination are depicted on the obverse of the coin.
Each coin’s high relief reverse and obverse are minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.
The coin is housed in a prestigious wooden display case within beautifully illustrated shipper, and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
