Australian Kangaroo 1 oz - an iconic investment silver series since 1993

The history of the Australian Kangaroo series dates back to 1993, when the Perth Mint released the first kangaroo coin as a successor to the earlier Australian Nugget gold nugget series. The decision to feature the kangaroo - the most internationally recognized symbol of Australia - proved inspired: the coin gained immediate global recognition in the precious metals market. Since then, a new edition with a subtly refreshed reverse design has appeared every year, giving each issue its own distinct character.

From 2015, the series evolved further as Perth Mint began applying increasingly advanced engraving techniques and security features, raising both the aesthetic value and the quality of each striking. The 2026 issue continues this tradition of excellence, offering investors and collectors a coin at the highest standard.

At GoldInvest24, we find that the 1 oz silver Australian Kangaroo is among the most purchased coins by investors looking for a combination of high fine silver content, a recognizable motif, and the reputation of a trusted mint.

Perth Mint - a minting tradition since 1899
