The proof and BU silver coins available from Perth Mint include annual Australian Kangaroo silver coins. This collection started as a proof-only series, with a BU version of the coin introduced in 2016. While the BU coins offer the same designs each year, the proof coins have a new image of the kangaroo on the reverse each year. Provident Metals now has certified-perfect 2012 Proof Australian Kangaroo 1 oz Silver Coins available to purchase online.
Highlights:
When you purchase a 2012 Proof Australian Kangaroo 1 oz Silver Coin online at Provident Metals, you will receive a coin that is in perfect condition. Coins with a PF70 grade showcase full, original mint luster and come with no detracting flaws. These proof coins have an ultra-cameo designation indicating strong, frosted designs and deeply-mirrored, clear fields. As high-relief proofs, there is a greater sense of depth to the background and enhanced 3D relief on the design elements.
Obverse
The obverse of 2012 Proof Australian Kangaroo Silver Coins comes with a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. In her role as sovereign head of the Commonwealth of Australia, Elizabeth II enjoys the title of Queen of Australia. She is shown here in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara on her head. The inscriptions on this face of the coin include ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA, and 1 DOLLAR.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 2012 Proof Australian Kangaroo 1 oz Silver Coin is an image of a large kangaroo. The kangaroo is the worlds largest species of marsupial and is native to the Australian continent. This design shows the kangaroo standing on its hind legs near a windmill on a ranch in the Australian Outback. The inscriptions include AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO, 2012, 1 OZ, 999, SILVER, and the P mint mark of Perth Mint.
History
Kangaroos are one of the worlds most unique land animals. Kangaroos have a unique movement that relies on powerful hind legs to hop along as it uses its muscular tail for balance while doing so. Like other marsupials, kangaroos keep their young in a pouch as they grow.
