The Perth Mint opened in 1899 and is one of the leading producers of precious metals in the world today. They have a truly remarkable catalog of products, ranging from bullion and ingots to exquisite collectibles. The gold Kangaroo coins have been issued annually since 1986 and remain one of the mint’s most popular releases. This is partly due to the iconic status of the kangaroo in Australia, and because the coins are produced with .9999 pure gold with a new design each year.
