Description of the 1/20 oz Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin

This is one of the longest-running coin series in the history of the Perth Mint, as the Australian Gold Kangaroo has over a 30-year history. These coins, originally introduced to the market as Gold Nugget, feature a new kangaroo design on the reverse each year. This gold product, weighing 1/20 oz, is characterized by a 999 fineness. It is delivered in a protective plastic capsule.

The nominal value of the coin is 5 Australian dollars, fully guaranteed by the government of Australia.

Appearance of the 1/20 oz Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin

The reverse features an image of a kangaroo, recognized worldwide as a symbol of Australia. The obverse of all Australian Gold Nugget - Kangaroo coins depicts the image of Queen Elizabeth II. It has appeared on the obverse of Australian coins since her ascension to the throne of England.

Historical Background

Coins from 1986-1989 depict a gold nugget symbolizing the gold rush in Western Australia in the 19th century.

It was then, on the outskirts of the small town of Ballarat in Victoria, that John Dunlop and James Regan found several ounces of gold in a nearby stream. Within just a few months, over 20,000 gold seekers flocked to the town, enticed by the prospect of quick wealth. Over the next decade, the area provided one-third of the world's gold production at that time. This contributed to the population increase in this location from 77 to 540,000 in just 2 years, and the gold rush that began then forever changed the history of Australia.

Coins from 1990 and later focus on the widely recognized symbol of Australia – the kangaroo. Interestingly, the kangaroo design changes with each year of issue.
