Representing the newest release for the popular annual offering is the 2011 Australian Kangaroo Silver Proof High Relief Coin. These coins feature a new design struck in high relief on an extra deep blank for a stunning effect.
The reverse design carries a depiction of a kangaroo against the rays of the sun. The inscriptions read "Australian Kangaroo" and "2011 1 oz 999 silver". On the obverse is a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II with inscriptions "Elizabeth II Australia" and "1 Dollar". The designs are highly detailed and rendered in high relief for an immediate and impressive impact on the viewer.
Each coin has a diameter of 32.60 mm and a thickness of 6.00 mm, twice the thickness of the typical one ounce silver coin.
The issue is limited to a mintage of 20,000 coins worldwide. The packaging consists of a display case with numbered Certificate of Authenticity and illustrated shipper.
Last year's high relief Silver Kangaroo coin could not be ordered directly from the Perth Mint. However, this year the coins can be purchased directly by visiting the
online product page.
