Newly released 2025 1 Ounce Australian Kangaroo Platinum Coin available from the Perth Mint.
2025 Australian Kangaroo Platinum Coin Design:
The obverse of this stunning coin presents a fresh portrait of King Charles III, marking a new chapter in the British monarchy. Above his image are the inscriptions "Charles III" and "Australia," signifying both his reign and the coin’s Australian origin. The substantial face value of $100 AUD is placed elegantly at the bottom, affirming its legal tender status under the Australian Currency Act of 1965.
On the reverse side, the coin features the iconic red kangaroo mid-hop, symbolizing the vast spirit of the Australian outback. The inscription “Australian Kangaroo” arches gracefully over the kangaroo, with additional markings for the year "2025," weight "1 oz," and platinum purity "9995" positioned below. A subtle "P" mintmark near the kangaroo ensures authenticity and acts as a security feature.
Perth Mint Kangaroo Series:
The Kangaroo series was first introduced in the 1980s with a gold coin, evolving from the original "Nugget" design to the now iconic kangaroo in 1988. The Perth Mint expanded the series to include silver in 2016 and platinum in 2017. Unlike the gold and silver versions, which feature new kangaroo designs each year, the platinum Kangaroo consistently showcases the powerful and majestic red kangaroo, cementing its place as a timeless emblem of the series.
The Perth Mint is also renowned for its Lunar series in platinum, both available exclusively as 1 Ounce coins. The platinum Kangaroo coin is highly sought after by investors, and it can be purchased individually or in multiples of 20 for larger investment portfolios. As Australia's official mint, the Perth Mint produces all of Australia’s legal tender and offers an extensive range of precious metal products.
