The Australian Gold Nugget series, now recognized as the Australian Gold Kangaroo, is the Perth Mint’s longest-running bullion coin program. First released in 1986 as the Gold Nugget, this series featured various reverse designs during its initial years. You can now purchase 1 oz Australian Gold Nugget Coins from BullionMax, with coins available from random years.

Each 1 oz Australian Gold Nugget Coin in this listing is provided in an individual protective plastic flip. The Perth Mint’s unlimited mintage policy for these coins has led to varying mintage numbers depending on the year.

For example, the 1987 Gold Nugget had the second-highest mintage in the series’ three-year run with a final count of 131,264 coins. The 1988 edition had a mintage of 128,461 coins, and the 1989 coin saw an increase in demand, resulting in a mintage of 189,321 coins.

The obverse side of each 1 oz Australian Gold Nugget Coin features Queen Elizabeth II, as portrayed by Raphael Maklouf. This design, used during the three-year Australian Gold Nugget series, presents a right-profile image of the Queen, adorned with the Royal Diadem crown, earrings, and a necklace.

Please note, BullionMax cannot guarantee specific date marks for these coins. They are chosen at random once your payment is processed, and if you order more than one, we cannot ensure they will have different date marks.
