Other Information
This coin is dual dated, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Gold Kangaroo series. This issue has a strict mintage cap of 2,000 coins.
Australia has been producing Gold Nuggets since 1986. The nugget had two unique features, it was produced with a ‘two-tone’ frosted effect and came encapsulated in a hard plastic case. These features gave the Australian Nugget a unique marketing niche.
In 1989 the Nugget design changed to a Kangaroo. The design of the Australian Kangaroo tends to change from year to year, but the Red Kangaroo design remains the same for each year.
