About the Gold Kangaroo Series by The Perth Mint

The Gold Kangaroo series, originally known as the Australian Nugget, was first introduced in 1986. It was rebranded in 1989 to feature the kangaroo, an iconic symbol of Australia, which has since become a hallmark of the series.

The Perth Mint's Gold Kangaroo series combines the beauty of Australian wildlife with the security of gold investment. Its annual design changes, high purity, and limited mintages make it a favourite among collectors and investors worldwide.
