When it was first launched in 1986, this program was known as the Australian Gold Nugget and showcased images of famous gold nuggets from the country. In 1990, the Perth Mint shifted the focus of the series to feature kangaroos, one of Australia’s most recognizable native animals. Each year since then, the reverse design has been updated with a new depiction of kangaroos.

The 2025 1 oz Australian Gold Kangaroo Coins are presented in MintID CertiCards. These cards seal the coin for protection and include an NFC microchip with AES-128 encryption. With the MintID app, you can easily verify the authenticity of your coin. Just ensure NFC scanning is enabled on your device, open the app, and follow the steps to confirm your coin’s authenticity without sharing personal information.

The obverse of the 2025 Australian Gold Kangaroo Coins features a portrait of King Charles III. This design by Dan Thorne marks the second year King Charles III appears on the Gold Kangaroo coins. The left-profile bust shows the monarch without a crown, adding a modern touch to this classic coin series.

On the reverse of 2025 1 oz Gold Kangaroo Coins, there is an image of two kangaroos in a dry, arid Australian landscape. One kangaroo is resting in the foreground, while the other is leaping across the sand dunes in the background.
