1-oz Platinum Australian Kangaroo (Random Year)

The Australian Platinum Kangaroo represents the Perth Mint's newest entry into the platinum bullion market, offering stackers a government-backed .9995 fine platinum coin with distinctive Australian wildlife imagery. Each 1 oz coin contains .9995 fine platinum and carries legal tender status with a denomination of 100 Australian dollars. First introduced in 2018, the Platinum Kangaroo series builds on Australia's established precious metals programs alongside their renowned gold and silver offerings.

The obverse displays the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II designed by Jody Clark, showing her wearing the Diamond Diadem crown with intricate detail in the hair and facial features. The inscription "ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA" curves along the top, with "100 DOLLARS" along the bottom and the designer's initials "JC" positioned to the right. The reverse features a dynamic kangaroo in mid-hop across the Australian landscape, surrounded by distinctive radial lines emanating from the center and detailed border inscriptions including "AUSTRALIAN PLATINUM" along with the weight and purity specifications.

Australian Platinum Kangaroos offer an accessible entry point into the growing platinum market, combining the Perth Mint's established reputation for quality with the appeal of recognized government backing. The coin's .9995 fine platinum purity and legal tender status provide confidence for platinum stackers, while the distinctive kangaroo design and broad dealer acceptance make these coins a liquid addition to precious metals portfolios focused on platinum diversification.
