Gold Kangaroos
The Gold Australian Kangaroo coin series, minted by the Perth Mint, continues to be a popular coin for collectors. The series began in 1987 and currently features the most recognizable symbol of Australia—the kangaroo. Each coin contains .9999 fine gold and is one of the few legal tender coins that changes design every year.
The coins are available in a variety of sizes, from 1/20 ounce to a kilo; however, we recommend the 1 ounce variety. Call for availability and pricing.
