The Australian Platinum Kangaroo Coin was introduced into the Australian Kangaroo Series in 2018. This quickly followed the 2016 introduction of the apr57 Silver Kangaroo coin in .9999 pure silver that became the first of its kind from the Perth Mint. These beautiful platinum coins share the same red kangaroo design found on the Australian Silver Kangaroo, 1 Kilo Gold Kangaroo coins, and previous circulation coins in Australia.
All 2020 1 oz Australian Platinum Kangaroo Coins in this listing are available to you in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. These coins are offered individually with protective acrylic capsules, as well as multiples of 20 in sealed rolls or multiples of 100 in boxes that contain five rolls of 20 coins each.
On the reverse of 2020 Australian Platinum Kangaroo Coins, you will find the image of a red kangaroo leaping across the Outback. The design features the kangaroo leaping across the design field from right to left with sunburst rays around the outer rim of the design field. The 1 oz Platinum Kangaroo now has a new security feature from the Perth Mint. This authentication feature is micro-engraved into the phrase Australian Kangaroo at the top of the reverse field and is only visible under magnification.
The obverse of 2020 1 oz Australian Platinum Kangaroo Coins features the image of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is captured here in right-profile relief in a design from Jody Clark that began to feature on Australian coins in 2018. This bust of the Queen depicts her wearing the Royal Diadem crown and is the first Australian design since 1966 to include her shoulders and neckline.
