Design gold kangaroo coin
The design of the golden kangaroo is all about the kangaroo. More than 50 different kangaroos live in Australia and it is considered the national symbol of Australia.
What makes kangaroos so special is the tremendous speed they can achieve, as much as 70 kilometres per hour. In many designs of the Gold Kangaroo coin, you will therefore see an image of a kangaroo in motion. Besides adult kangaroos, you often see baby kangaroos incorporated on the coin. Baby kangaroos, also called Joey's, can weigh as little as 1 gram at birth. The joey's further development happens in its mother's pouch.
