Silver Perth Kangaroos at Silver.com
The Perth Mint is well-known for its annual BU coin programs. Programs such as the Silver Kookaburra Series and the Silver Lunar Series have been captivating investors and collectors for the better part of three decades. The Perth Mint is widely renowned for its reverse designs of these programs which are updated with every year of issue. However, its newest series, the Silver Perth Kangaroo, retains the same on each release. Learn more about these Silver Perth Kangaroos right here, at Silver.com.
Series Background
Proof strikes of these Silver Perth Kangaroos first debuted in 1993. The popularity of these proof issues eventually led to an annual BU coin program, beginning in 2015.
Not only was this the start of one of the Perth Mint’s newer coin programs, but the Silver Perth Kangaroo was also the first Perth Mint Series to include a .9999 fine silver coin. These coins debuting with this level of purity led to other programs, such as the Kookaburra and the Koala, to also make the transition to 99.99% fine silver.
These coins are annually produced in a 1 oz size, with a face value of $1 (AUD).
Silver Perth Kangaroo Design
Since the inception of the coin program, the reverse design has remained the same. This kangaroo design is based on a 1938 design for the Australian copper penny. It features a red kangaroo bounding across the outback in left-profile relief. The background shows rays of sunshine.
The obverse of these coins features the effigy of the reigning British monarch. Over the years this has included many different designs, such as the following:
- 2015-2018: Ian Rank-Broadley’s Queen Elizabeth II.
- 2019-2023: Jody Clark’s Queen Elizabeth II.
- 2024-Present: Dan Thorne’s King Charles III.
The reverse design for the Silver Perth Kangaroo has become a staple of the Perth Mint over the years. This image has been seen on other products from the Perth Mint, notably their gold and silver minted ingots.
Unique Strikes of Silver Perth Kangaroos
Along with the aforementioned BU and proof coins, these coins are issued in various strikes such as gilded and colorized.
Gilded coins are minted by applying a thin layer of 24-karat gold onto the coin. Colorized coins are made by applying a colorized lacquer, typically to the reverse side.
While BU coins are produced in just a 1 oz size, gilded and colorized editions are made in larger sizes such as 2 oz and 5 oz.
