Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2002-2003 Australian 50 Dollar Elizabeth II (4th Portrait - Kangaroo - Gold Bullion Coin) is that it has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. The coin's reverse side features a kangaroo, which is a symbol of Australia, and the kangaroo is depicted in a unique way - it is shown in a "mint-first" pose, meaning that it is shown standing on its hind legs and holding a gold nugget in its pouch. This design was created by the artist, Stuart Devlin, and it is the first time that a kangaroo has been depicted in this pose on a coin. This unique design feature adds to the coin's collectibility and makes it a standout piece in any coin collection.
