Description

 

• Mint: The Perth Mint
• Year: 2025
• Metal Content: 1 troy ounce of .9999 pure gold.

 

• Obverse: Likely to feature the effigy of King Charles III, as the coin series will transition from Queen Elizabeth II to reflect the current monarch. This side would typically include inscriptions like “CHARLES III,” “AUSTRALIA,” the face value (probably $100 AUD), and the year “2025.”
• Reverse: A new design of a kangaroo for 2025, showcasing the animal in its natural habitat or in motion, which changes every year to keep the series fresh and collectible. The design might incorporate elements like the Perth Mint’s “P” mintmark, the weight “1 OZ,” the purity “9999 GOLD,” and possibly the inscription “AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO.”

 

• Weight: 1 troy ounce
• Purity: .9999 fine gold
• Denomination: $100 (AUD), ensuring it’s legal tender in Australia.

 

• Micro-Laser Engraving: A security feature where a tiny letter is engraved within the design, visible only under magnification.
• The Perth Mint’s “P” Mintmark: This mark guarantees the coin’s origin and authenticity.

 

• Each coin is expected to come in an individual protective acrylic capsule, with options for collectors to purchase mint-sealed rolls or boxes for multiples.

 

• The Perth Mint typically releases these coins in unlimited mintage for the 1 oz Gold Kangaroo, but special editions or variations might have capped mintages, enhancing their collectibility.

 

• Beyond the gold content, the coin holds value due to its:
  • Limited annual redesign which makes each year’s issue unique.
  • High purity and the reputation of The Perth Mint.
  • Legal tender status, adding a layer of security for investors.

 

• The kangaroo is emblematic of Australia, featured in the country’s coat of arms and known worldwide as a symbol of Australia’s unique fauna. The series not only celebrates this but also promotes Australian coinage and wildlife heritage.

 

• Given the series’ popularity, the introduction of King Charles III’s effigy, and the annual change in design, these coins are highly anticipated by collectors and investors. The gold Kangaroo series has a strong following, and each new release often sparks interest due to the artistic interpretation of the kangaroo.
