Design & Craftsmanship

Reverse – The reverse features a bounding red kangaroo, surrounded by stylised rays of sunlight that radiate across the coin’s surface. The design is bordered by the inscriptions: “AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO”, the year “2019”, and “1oz 9999 SILVER”. A micro-engraved security feature is also integrated, providing enhanced anti-counterfeit protection.

Obverse – The obverse showcases the Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by the legend “ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 1 DOLLAR”. This design affirms the coin’s status as Australian legal tender and was the first year The Perth Mint adopted the Jody Clark portrait for its bullion coinage.

Struck with exceptional precision, the 2019 Kangaroo combines bullion utility with collectibility and visual appeal.
