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.

It is amazing the the Perth Mint changes the design on the Gold Kangaroos every year. That alone makes them highly collectible. The earlier designs of the 1/10 ounce coins had very low mintages, so they are more collectible, but these are still less than half of the mintage of US Eagles or Canadian Maple Leafs while selling for a lower premium. Be aware that these are dime sized coins in plastic cases. You need to devise a good storage method to keep from losing them in your safe.

An attractive coin and an affordable way to build a gold stash. The 1 oz coins are great also but who'll have change for a 1 oz coin when the time comes to use your gold? lol Looks a bit like Kangaroo Jack!
