The Kangaroo is the third design in the Australian Map Shaped Coin Series. The iconic kangaroo is one of the most symbolic animals of Australia being well adapted to hop great distances in a place that often has scarce food and water or to evade the prolific predators in its natural habitat. This coin is uniquely shaped like the map of Australia.
The obverse features the Queen Elizabeth II effigy by Ian Rank-Broadley and the words "ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 2013 1 DOLLAR". The reverse depicts the struck design of a kangaroo against a coloured sunset background highlighting Picnic Rocks in Tasmania.
The inscription "Kangaroo" appears above the kangaroo as well as the words "1 oz 999 Silver" with the year 2013 below it and the "P" mint mark in the bottom left corner. This coin has a limited mintage of 6,000 worldwide.
ABOUT PERTH MINT
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint's 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
