A regular fixture at the Royal Australian Mint, the kangaroo has appeared on some iconic designs over the years, from Stuart Devlin’s ‘Mob of Roos’, to the beloved ‘Kangaroo at Sunset’. It’s hard to believe the core Kangaroo Series will be hitting its 30th anniversary in 2023, but you begin to see why when we get designs like these.

A fully stylistic artistic approach has worked wonders here, everything depicted in representative form. The end result is unique and attractive, in our view, the best the series has offered for years. It would be great to see this evolve over the next few years. The obverse is the usual dull, unadorned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, sadly.

Two variants make up the range, both an ounce of 0.999 silver in composition. A proof variant for $105 AUD comes boxed with a C.O.A. and has a 5,000 mintage. An unboxed  frosted uncirculated coin with a 10,000 mintage and a $70 AUD price tag rounds out the selection. Bar the finish, they look identical and both are available to order now. Beautiful release.
