35th Anniversary of the Kangaroo Nugget 2021 $25 1/4oz Gold Proof Coin
A splendid tribute to Australia’s primary native icon, this eye-catching kangaroo coin is struck to the height of Proof quality from 1/4oz of pure, prestigious 99.99% gold.
Official Australian legal tender, this impressive 1/4oz gold coin is the latest addition to one of Australia’s most internationally renowned programs – the Perth Mint’s Kangaroo Nugget Series. Celebrating the 35th anniversary of the series, this coin features not one, but two iconic designs used in the long-running program.
The Welcome Stranger nugget design seen at the top of the reverse was employed on the first issue of the Kangaroo Nugget Series, in 1986, whilst the iconic Red Kangaroo motif was first seen in 1989. Both were created by numismatic master craftsman Stuart Devlin, who designed Australia’s original decimal coins. The obverse features the current Jody Clark portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, as well as the Raphael Maklouf portrait – used from the beginning of the Perth Mint’s illustrious gold coin series.
An official Australian legal tender issue, the 35th Anniversary of the Kangaroo Nugget 2021 $25 1/4oz Gold Proof Coin is a strictly limited edition. A mere 1,000 coins have been issued worldwide – each presented within a Perth Mint case with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
