Obverse

The obverse of the 2025 Proof Colorized Australian Silver Kangaroo Coin features King Charles III in left-profile relief. Created by Dan Thorne, this portrait presents the king without a crown, in keeping with Australias latest coin designs.

Reverse

On the reverse of the 2025 1 oz Proof Colorized Silver Kangaroo, two kangaroos are shown in a grassy landscape. One is actively hopping across the terrain, while the other is resting, conserving energy in the midday sun. Western Grey kangaroos, commonly found in southwestern Australia, are known for their ability to adapt to different habitats, from dry scrublands to more fertile regions.

History

Australias kangaroos are a diverse species that have evolved to thrive in different environments. Red kangaroos, the largest species, are well-suited to the open plains and dry interior of the country. Eastern Grey kangaroos, by contrast, prefer the wooded and grassy areas along the eastern coast, where they have better access to food and shelter.
