KANGAROO 1 OZ ROUND #KAN1OZ

The kangaroo, symbolic of Australia and the Perth Mint, is the largest marsupial surviving on earth today. The animal’s distinctive style of movement, hopping on its hind legs whilst using its large, muscular tail for balance, means it is one of the only animals which is unable to move backwards easily. The kangaroo features in the Australian national emblem.

As a Perth Mint first, the 1 oz Australian Silver Kangaroo coins includes an authentication feature on the reverse - in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter ‘A’, the first letter in AUSTRALIA. The mark is only detectable under a magnifying glass and is designed to make it significantly more difficult for the coin to be counterfeited. Check out all our Australian silver coins.
