An iconic product of The Perth Mint, the Australian kangaroo gold bullion coins are a striking tribute to Australia’s most recognisable animal. Reaching more than 6 feet tall, kangaroos possess the astonishing capability of leaping a vast 30 feet in a single bound.
The kangaroos take centre stage in the 2027 gold coin design of two kangaroos – one standing tall and alert, the other bent toward the ground drinking water from the riverbed. The background features a rugged Australian outback landscape. Included in the design is the inscription ‘KANGAROO’ and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, along with the coin’s weight, purity, and 2027 year-date.
While each gold coin design also incorporates the inscription ‘KANGAROO’, the 1 kilo coin features the inscription ‘AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO’. The obverse of each coin bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, and the monetary denomination.
Issued as Australian legal tender, each coin in the program is meticulously struck by The Perth Mint from 99.99% pure Australian Origin Gold. With coins from as small as 1/10oz ranging up to an impressive 1 kilo, the program provides outstanding convenience for all gold bullion coin buyers.
No more than 100,000 1/2oz coins, 150,000 1/4oz coins and 200,000 1/10oz coins will be produced.
Mintages of the 1 kilo and 1oz coins are unlimited, however, production will close at the end of 2027, after which The Perth Mint will declare the official mintages.
