This Gold Kangaroo coin struck in solid gold had the reverse designed by Reg Mombassa, a world famous artist and entertainer.
He is also a great Australian and it is fitting that he was asked by the RAM to design this coin incorporating the beloved
Australian Kangaroo. The design includes an adult kangaroo embracing its kid with some trees in the background. The
The Kangaroo is probably Australia's most iconic animal. It is a marsupial mammal with over sixty different species ranging from the large Red Kangaroo to the small Wallabies. The Red Kangaroo is the largest marsupial in the world and can weigh up to 90 kilograms. Kangaroos of differing species can be found all across Australia whether the climate is cold or hot and in desert or tropical areas. Some can even be found on beaches whilst others live in trees. All kangaroos are herbivorous, eating a range of plants and shrubs and most are nocturnal but some are active in the early morning and late afternoon. The Kangaroo, along with the Emu, were selected as symbols of Australia and are featured on the official Australian coat of arms.
