Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin
1 oz Gold • Year varies (2022 shown)
Drag to turn the coin
The Australian Gold Kangaroo is issued by the Perth Mint, and the 1 oz coin is one of its signature gold bullion coins. Each coin holds one troy ounce of .9999 fine (24 karat) gold. The kangaroo side of the 1 oz coin gets a new design every year, so the coin shown here is the 2022 issue, with a kangaroo and its joey bounding across a grassy plain. The pictured 2022 coin carries the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II; coins dated 2024 and later carry King Charles III, and the kangaroo design is different every year. Legal tender in Australia with a face value of A$100. Other years look different.
