2018 Perth Mint Gold Kangaroo Coin 1/10 oz

Boasting a mintage of just 200,000 coins, these 2018 1/10 oz Perth Mint Kangaroo Gold Coins are the smallest Gold Kangaroo released by the Perth Mint this year. The release of the Gold Kangaroos is a globally anticipated event, with collectors and investors anxiously watching for the next release in this long-running Australian bullion gold program. Although Kangaroo Gold Coins started out as Gold Nuggets in 1986, Perth Mint switched to kangaroos in 1989. This change was implemented because the kangaroos were one of the most recognizable Australian symbols in the world because these marsupials are exclusive to the Australian region. Each of these coins contains 1/10 troy ounces of 0.9999 pure gold. Moreover, they carry a face value of $15 (AUD) each as they bear legal tender status in Australia. A few stylish lines in the background stylishly depict the landscape of the Australian outback on the reverses of these coins. Two kangaroos are portrayed rapidly bounding across the land using their incredibly unique way of movement – hopping from one place to another. Ian Rank-Broadley’s portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II makes an appearance on the obverse sides – in line with all Australian circulating coinage. The face value assigned to the coin is imprinted on this side, along with the Queen’s name and the issuing country’s name. These 2018 1/10 oz Perth Mint Gold Kangaroo Coins are the most economical way of getting your hands on this year’s design of the Gold Kangaroo. Moreover, the coins’ pure gold content makes them an attractive investment option for investors who want to add a relatively smaller quantity of gold to their portfolios.
