2026 Australian Kangaroo 1oz Silver Bullion Coin
The Perth Mint | 99.99% Pure Silver | Australian Legal Tender
About this coin
The Australian Kangaroo is The Perth Mint's flagship silver bullion series, re-designed each year. The 2026 issue shows a red kangaroo mid-bound, framed by stylised rays of bursting sunlight, with a wavy-lined border carrying the series name, the weight and purity, the year-date, and the Perth Mint "P" mintmark. The obverse carries the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.
Each coin is struck from one troy ounce of 99.99% pure silver and is legal tender in Australia with a face value of AUD $1. The Perth Mint is wholly owned by the Government of Western Australia, which makes this one of the most widely recognised and easily traded silver bullion coins in the world.
Authentication feature
The reverse carries a micro laser-engraved letter as an anti-counterfeiting measure. It is invisible to the naked eye and only detectable under a magnifying glass, so the coin can be verified independently of its packaging.
Presentation
Every coin is supplied in a clear protective acrylic capsule direct from the mint. The capsule shields the surfaces from handling marks and airborne contaminants while leaving both faces fully visible, so the coin can be inspected and displayed without ever being touched. Capsules also stack neatly for storage.

Condition note
These are bullion coins, not proof coins.
