Comment

First issued in 1993, the Royal Australian Mint's Kangaroo series has been bounding along strongly ever since. Hopping through several different design types and themes, the Kangaroo series has reached the age of 30 in 2023.

To celebrate the occasion, the Mint has returned to that original design, in a Gold Proof version, back in 1993 of a simple Bounding Kangaroo, reminiscent of the penny coins that circulated pre-1966. The coin features a "C" Mintmark

Issued as a Proof coin in a capsule in a box.
