• Obverse: Bears the Jody Clark likeness of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the face value.

• Reverse: Features the classic red kangaroo design by Dr. Stuart Devlin, surrounded by a radiating design meant to symbolize sunlight, along with a micro-engraved letter appearing under magnification.

Silver Kangaroo Series

Continuing the tradition of Gold Kangaroo coins, The Perth Mint released the first Silver Kangaroo in 2015 in a limited mintage of 300,000 coins, then continued to present day as a more widely available Silver bullion release. Australian Silver Kangaroo coins feature a classic design of a hopping red kangaroo and a sunburst design created by Dr. Stuart Devlin. The same design is also found on The Perth Mint's 1 kilo Gold bullion coins. Struck in 1 oz of .9999 fine Silver, boasting a micro engraved security feature and a face value of $1 (AUD) backed by the Australian Government, the Silver Kangaroo coin series became an instant classic among investors and collectors across the world.
