Kangaroos can jump up to three times their height and can swim. Despite their powerful back legs, kangaroos can't walk backward. A baby kangaroo is called a "joey" while a group of kangaroos is considered a "mob," "troop," or "court."The obverse of the coin features a right-facing profile of Elizabeth II while the reverse of the coin depicts on of the four species of kangaroos.
