The Gold Kangaroo Collection from the Perth Mint is one of the world's best-selling gold coin series.

The Design

The kangaroo is the standard motif of the series, hence its moniker. The landmark of the series is giving the kangaroo an exclusive portrait at each annual of its gold strikes.

The 2016 edition showcases a standing kangaroo resting on its tail, with a silhouette outlining another kangaroo in the distance in the background.

The reverse side usually displays the coin’s year of mintage, weight, fineness, and metal content, in addition to the series name “KANGAROO.”

The obverse depicts the right profile of Queen Elizabeth II and engravings referring to Her Majesty’s name, “AUSTRALIA,” and the coin’s denomination of “200 DOLLARS.” 

A PCGS PR-70 Coin

PCGS—Professional Coin Grading Service operates independently of sovereign mints. It evaluates and grades coins using the Sheldon Scale, a grading system from 1 to 70.

PR stands for Proof Coin, indicating a coin produced for collection purposes. It exhibits mirror-like surfaces in contrast with frosted design elements. 70 is the highest grade, indicating a coin with no visible flaws.
