Bounding kangaroos

The reverse of this coin depicts two kangaroos bounding across a stylised rural landscape bordered by the inscription AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO as well as The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the 2018 year-date.

Brilliant high relief

The coin’s high relief reverse and obverse are minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.

Using extra thick blanks and deeply engraved dies, skilled craftspeople create the superb high relief that accentuates the design in spectacular style.
