The cute Mini Roo returns in 2019 with a new coin design. This highly affordable gold coin would make a wonderful gift or treasured keepsake.
Struck by The Perth Mint from 0.5g of 99.99% pure gold, the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
Design
The coin’s reverse depicts a crouching kangaroo, the coin’s weight and fineness, and The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark.
The coin’s obverse portrays the Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the 2019 year-date and the monetary denomination.
Presentation
The 2019 Mini Roo coin is housed in a protective acrylic capsule and presented in a colorful wallet-sized card.
