Each 2009 Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin comes securely housed in an airtight acrylic capsule to preserve its uncirculated finish. Larger quantities are delivered in mint tubes of 10 and boxes of 100, designed for both institutional investors and serious stackers.
Due to its low mintage and rising demand, the 2009 issue becomes harder to source each year, reinforcing its value as a long-term hold and collector's item.
