Homepage / Bullion Coins: Australian Coin / 1 oz. Platinum Australian Kangaroo
Updated on 03/24/2024
2018 is the introductory year of the 1 oz. Platinum Australian Kangaroo Bullion Coin.
The reverse side of the platinum bullion coin pays tribute to the Red Kangaroo, Australia's most recognizable animal, which is also the largest marsupial.
Since 1991, the same design has been on the reverse side of the 1-kilo. Australian Kangaroo Gold bullion coin.
The Perth Mint released the first Australian 1oz Platinum Kangaroo bullion coin on October 23rd, 2017, with an unlimited production mintage.
Obverse
The direction of the monarch's face is a subtle difference between the 2023 and 2024 Platinum Kangaroos.
On the 2023 Platinum Kangaroo, the late Queen Elizabeth II faced to the right, and now the new King of England, Charles III, is facing the left.
Switching the direction a monarch faces on British Commonwealth coinage is a tradition that dates back to the 17th century for the British Royal Family.
Note: At the top of the 2023's Platinum Kangaroo's obverse side shows the the dates 1952-2022, which represents the duration of Queen Elizabeth II's reign. (click image to enlarge)
The obverse of the Platinum Kangaroo portrays the profile of His Majesty King Charles III, by designer Dan Thorne.
