2025 1oz Gold Kangaroo Coin

The kangaroo, a symbol of Australia’s unique wildlife, captivates the world with its strength and adaptability. As members of the Macropodidae family, kangaroos share lineage with other marsupials like wallabies and wallaroos. Their powerful hind legs, long tails for balance, and iconic hopping movement allow them to navigate Australia’s diverse landscapes with ease. Celebrate this extraordinary animal with the 2025 1 oz Australian Gold Kangaroo Coin.

Obverse Design:
The obverse of the 2025 Gold Kangaroo Coin features the Perth Mint’s first-generation effigy of King Charles III. Designed by Dan Thorne, this left-profile portrait presents His Majesty without a crown, captured in stunning detail.

Reverse Design:
The reverse highlights a dynamic depiction of two kangaroos in Australia’s arid Outback. One kangaroo rests on its side in the sandy foreground, while another leaps gracefully through the background, embodying the vitality and resilience of this iconic species.

Kangaroos demonstrate remarkable adaptability, especially in Australia’s drought-prone regions. Female kangaroos have the unique ability to pause the development of their embryos—a process called embryonic diapause—until environmental conditions improve, ensuring the survival of their species.
