1oz Perth Mint Gold Kangaroo Coin (Random Years)

The Perth Mint Kangaroo Coin Series, a beloved symbol of Australia, boasts a surprising origin story. It all began in the late 1980s, not with kangaroos, but with the Gold Nugget Coin Series. These early coins celebrated Australia’s rich gold mining history by featuring famous nuggets. They stood out with a unique frosted design and individual packaging, setting them apart from typical bullion coins.

However, by 1989, the designers recognised the global appeal of the kangaroo. In a smart move, they revamped the series. The kangaroo, a more universally recognized symbol of Australia, took centre stage on the reverse. This shift solidified the series’ current identity – the Perth Mint Kangaroo Coin Series.

The 1990s witnessed the series truly flourish. New coin sizes were introduced, including the impressive 2 oz, 10 oz, and even a record-breaking 1 kilogram gold coin – some of the largest ever minted. These larger denominations featured a consistent “red kangaroo” design, while the smaller coins continued to surprise collectors with new kangaroo artwork each year.

The Perth Mint’s commitment to innovation reached new heights in 2011. They created the one-tonne gold coin, shattering the record for the biggest and most valuable gold coin ever made. This awe-inspiring feat cemented The Perth Mint’s position as a world leader in precious metal minting.

Today, the Perth Mint Kangaroo Coin Series remains a favourite among investors and collectors. It offers a beautiful and valuable way to own a piece of Australian heritage while investing in pure gold bullion.

A bullion premium is the amount charged over the spot price of the precious metal. It includes costs related to manufacturing, distribution, and the dealer’s margin. The spot price is the current market price of the metal itself, and the premium covers additional costs incurred in bringing the bullion to market. Factors influencing the premium include the type of bullion (e.g., coin or bar), its size, the mint or refiner’s reputation, and market supply and demand conditions.

Secondary bullion items, which are previously owned or pre-circulated, typically have lower premiums than new items. This is because secondary items do not incur the same initial manufacturing and distribution costs. Additionally, since they may show signs of wear or handling, they are often sold at a discount resulting in a lower premium over the spot price.
