The obverse of the 2025 1/2 Gram Proof Gold Mini Roo Coin features the first official effigy of King Charles III. This left-profile portrait, created by Dan Thorne, depicts His Majesty without a crown. This design is now standard on Australian coins.

On the reverse of 2025 Proof Australian Gold Mini Roo Coins, artist Neil Hollis presents an image of a kangaroo resting in the shade during the hottest part of the day. Kangaroos in the wild follow a crepuscular lifestyle, meaning they are most active during dawn and dusk when temperatures are cooler. During the heat of midday, they rest in shaded areas to conserve energy.

In their native Australian habitat, kangaroos exhibit fascinating social behaviors. They often form loose groups called “mobs,” usually consisting of 10 to 20 members. Dominant males establish leadership through boxing matches, where they balance on their tails and use their powerful hind legs to strike their opponents in displays of strength.

These 2025 1/2 Gram Proof Australian Gold Mini Roo Coins feature frosted designs set against mirrored backgrounds, creating a stunning contrast. Each coin is sealed in plastic within a specially designed Kangaroo-themed card, making it easy to store and display.
