The reverse of the 1 oz and 1 kilo coins feature a security feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter incorporated into the coin's design. This feature is only visible when viewed under a magnifying glass.
The Perth Mint Kangaroo coin has featured Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on every release to date.
The kangaroo coins originally featured famous gold nuggets on their reverse. In 1990 this changed to show kangaroos. For this reason the coins may be referred to as 'nuggets', 'kangaroos' or even 'roos'.
A proof coin is a type of coin that is produced using a specific minting process that results in a highly polished surface and intricate design details. The coins are designed for collectors and investors who are interested in a high-quality product that showcases superior craftsmanship and minting quality.
Proof coins are typically produced in limited quantities and may feature unique packaging, certificates of authenticity, or other distinguishing characteristics that set them apart from standard coins. Due to their limited production and exceptional finish, proof coins generally command higher prices than regular coins of the same denomination and are highly prized by both collectors and investors.
The obverse bears the Jody Clark Australian coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The coin is also inscribed:
ELIZABETH II • 1952-2022 • AUSTRALIA • 25 DOLLARS
Designed by artist Ing Ing Jong, the reverse portrays a kangaroo looking over its shoulder against a backdrop of verdant grassland. The inscription of the coin reads as:
