Australian Kangaroo 5 oz Gold 2025 Proof

The Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin is a product particularly recommended for investors who want to secure their capital. It is a coin struck from pure gold with a fineness of 9999, weighing five troy ounces, and in proof standard. Its producer is the renowned Australian mint – the Perth Mint. The investment value of the gold Kangaroo is emphasized by the fact that it is backed by the Australian government and serves as legal tender in the issuing country. The coin is delivered in its original certified packaging.

The coin featuring the Kangaroo is one of the most frequently chosen investment products by collectors. It is worth noting that what sets this product apart from other gold investment coins is that the reverse design changes annually. Furthermore, it features an additional security measure in the form of the letter "P" engraved on the reverse side.

The history of this exceptional coin dates back to 1987. For the first 21 years of production, the gold Kangaroo was minted under the name “gold nugget.” Importantly, since 1995, the image of the Kangaroo has remained unchanged, while earlier designs depicted not only the Kangaroo but also gold nuggets.

Obverse features a portrait of King Charles III of the United Kingdom, designed by Dan Thorne. It also includes information about the coin’s denomination.

Reverse shows two kangaroos, with a windmill in the background. The coin also features the inscription "KANGAROO" along with details about the weight, year of issue, and metal quality. The reverse design was created by Neil Hollis.
