The Gold Kangaroo series was originally the Gold Nugget series minted by the Perth Mint, beginning in 1986. The reverse images featured various Gold Nuggets from 1986 to 1989, until the design was changed in 1989 to feature the kangaroo, which was more symbolic of Australia. Minted in denominations of 1/20 oz, 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz, 1 oz and 1 kilo sizes, these coins have legal tender status in Australia. A significant appeal for collectors is the fact that the designs of these beautiful coins change each year, differentiating them from many other popular Gold sovereign coins.
The kangaroo is the most instantly recognizable wildlife symbol of Australia. The world's largest marsupial, females carry their infants around in their pouch for two months after being born. These young kangaroos, called joeys, will stay close to their mothers until about eight months of age.
Red Kangaroos hop along on their powerful hind legs and do so at tremendous speed and with incredible grace. In fact, a red kangaroo can reach speeds of over 35 miles per hour! Their massive gait allows them to cover 25 feet in a single leap. The male kangaroos are larger than the females, and sometimes fight over potential mates by leaning back on their tails and boxing each other with their strong hind legs.

I think the 2017 design is one of the most attractive in the series. Even though these had a low premium for a bullion con when I bought them, I wouldn't be surprised to see the premium grow over time giving them a collectible bonus. I bought 20. They came in individual capsules shrink wrapped together in a roll. They were in perfect condition. All in all a great experience with APMEX.

I purchased the 2017 Gold Kangaroo last month and found it to be outstanding in detail and finish. The Australian Mint makes some of the world's finest products, and both silver and gold coinage from them is excellent. Another satisfied APMEX customer.
