Perth Mint’s Gold Kangaroo Coins
Renowned globally as a premier gold and silver bullion brand, The Perth Mint stands out for its exceptional craftsmanship and diverse collection of commemorative coins and bars. While it produces a range of impressive pieces, it is the Perth Gold Kangaroo Coins that capture widespread admiration.
A National Emblem
The Perth Mint, based in Australia, has a tradition of drawing inspiration from the country’s native wildlife for its coin designs. Notable among its sovereign coins are those featuring iconic animals like the kookaburra, the koala, and, of course, the kangaroo.
Kangaroos, exclusive to the Australian continent’s wild habitats, symbolize the largest marsupial known, belonging to the Macropodidae family, meaning “large foot.” Despite being commonly perceived as a singular species, Australia hosts four distinct kangaroo species: the red kangaroo, eastern grey kangaroo, western grey kangaroo, and antilopine kangaroo. The red kangaroo, recognized by its fur color, is the most familiar to those outside Australia.
In addition to its appearance on Perth Mint coins, the kangaroo serves as an unofficial symbol of Australia, gracing the national coat of arms, currency from the Royal Australian Mint, and serving as an official emblem for entities like the Royal Australian Air Force and Qantas Airlines. Australia is home to approximately 34 million kangaroos.
Perth Mint Gold Kangaroos and Nuggets
The Gold Kangaroo coin traces its origins to the Australian Gold Nugget, first released in 1987. Originally featuring a gold nugget design, the coin underwent a transformation in 1989, adopting the beloved kangaroo motif. Since then, the Perth Mint has adhered to the practice of introducing rotating designs on the reverse side of its gold bullion Australian Kangaroo coins, maintaining the central theme of the kangaroo in its natural habitat.
Issued annually in various weights, including 1 oz, ½ oz, ¼ oz, 1/10 oz, and 1/20 oz, each coin bears a face value in Australian Dollars (AUD). The larger denominations, such as 2 oz, 10 oz, and 1 Kilogram, have also been occasionally released. Alongside the bullion version, the Perth Mint produces proof versions, showcasing different designs contributed by various artists and engravers.
Monarch portraits on the obverse have evolved over the years, with the most recent featuring Dan Thorne’s effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, marking a significant moment in Perth Mint bullion history.
MintID Australian Gold Kangaroos
The Australian Gold Kangaroo, formerly known as the Australian Gold Nugget, is the Perth Mint’s flagship gold coin series. Available in various weights since 1990, it continues to captivate collectors with its annual release and distinctive reverse designs capturing the kangaroo in new relief.

About the Perth Mint
Established in 1899, the Perth Mint is Australia and the South Pacific’s oldest operating coining facility and precious metal refinery. Initially part of the Royal Mint of London system, it has a rich history of producing gold sovereigns and half-sovereigns for Australia and the British Empire. In 1970, it transitioned to local government control and became a global leader in bullion production.
The Perth Mint’s commitment to excellence is evident in its groundbreaking achievements, including the creation of the world’s largest, heaviest, and most valuable gold coin in 2011. Today, operating independently of the Royal Australian Mint system, it continues to set benchmarks for design and purity in the precious metal industry.
