Description

The Perth Mint’s Gold Kangaroo series remains one of the most recognized and collected bullion programs in the world. Originally introduced in 1986 as the Gold Nugget series, the design shifted in 1989 to feature the kangaroo — a symbol that instantly became synonymous with Australian heritage and the Mint’s commitment to artistry.

The 2026 edition presents a fresh depiction of two kangaroos in their natural environment. One rests beneath the outback sun, while the other stands alert and ready to bound forward. The scene includes a native Xanthorrhoea (australis) grass tree — a distinctive feature of the Australian landscape — along with the inscription KANGAROO, the traditional P mintmark, year date, weight, and purity.

Each coin is struck from 1 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold and is backed by the Australian Government as legal tender with a face value of 100 AUD. Advanced Perth Mint minting technology ensures superior finish, security, and quality — making the 2026 Gold Kangaroo a top choice for both investors and collectors.
