Buy the 2020 1oz Gold Kangaroo Coin Online
The Kangaroo Coins have become iconic not just in the Perth Mint’s lineup, but among collectors and investors of any bullion. The series dates back to 1986, but originally was known as the Gold Nugget Coin series until 1989 when Perth changed the line to the gold kangaroo series.
The Perth Mint was established in 1899 originally as a branch of the British Royal Mint. It wasn’t until 1970 that ownership of the mint was turned over to Western Australia’s state government. Since then, the Perth Mint has been the source of many coin series popular among collectors and investors alike, including the Golden Kangaroo Coins.
The 2020 1oz Gold Kangaroo features the side profile of Queen Elizabeth II done by designer Jody Clark. Around the border of the gold kangaroo’s obverse is inscribed the words “ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA” as well as the monetary denomination of “100 DOLLARS”. In addition, the letters “JC” can be seen on the image of Her Majesty, being the initials of the designer.
The reverse of the new Australian Gold Kangaroo features a brand new design. This time around we see an adult mother kangaroo standing upright with her offspring, or joey, in the background. The two are shown on the open grassland plains with two Australian grass trees that are commonly found in the outback. Surrounding the image on the coin’s reverse are the words “AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO” along with “2020 1oz 9999 GOLD”. The “P” mint mark of the Perth Mint can also be seen on this face of the coin.
The 2020 1oz Australian Gold Kangaroo is a perfect addition to any collection, but due to the 9999 purity, also makes it a viable option for anyone looking to invest in gold bullion. And when you purchase as SD Bullion, you get the lowest price online, so lock in your gold price today.
