Famous marsupial
Australia’s most famous marsupial, the kangaroo has appeared on The Perth Mint’s signature coin series since 1989. With superbly observed portrayals of the iconic animal, the renowned Australian Kangaroo series offers pieces featuring ‘reverse gilding’, which switches the selective application of surface gold from a coin’s central motif to the background design details.
Reverse gilded design
The coin portrays a kangaroo lying on the ground, a restful position that helps it conserve energy during the hottest part of the day. The background and other artistic elements, including representations of a grass tree, are gilded in 24-carat gold. Also within the gilded area is inscription ‘KANGAROO’ and The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark, the design includes the coin’s weight, purity, 2025 year-date.
