AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO 2026 1oz SILVER BULLION COIN
The Perth Mint is pleased to present the Australian Kangaroo 2026 1oz Silver Bullion Coin.
An iconic product of The Perth Mint, the Australian Kangaroo silver bullion coin is a striking tribute to Australia’s most recognisable animal. Identified by its muscular tail, strong back legs, large feet, short fur, and long, pointed ears, the animal has become a much-loved national icon. This unique bullion coin series pays tribute to the country's definitive animal emblem that traces its roots back to the Guugu Yimithirr word 'gangurru'. From the arid interiors to the lush bushland parks on the outskirts of cities, kangaroos inhabit every corner of this wide, brown land.
The kangaroo takes centre stage in the 2026 silver coin design with a leaping kangaroo, surrounded by stylised rays of bursting sunlight. Inscriptions on a wavy-lined border include ‘AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO’ and the coin’s weight, purity, and 2026 year-date, together with The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
The coin is subject to an unlimited mintage, however, production will close at the end of 2026, after which The Perth Mint will declare its official mintage.
Authentication feature The coin incorporates an authentication feature on the reverse. In the form of a micro-laser engraved letter, it is only detectable under a magnifying glass.
