Obverse

The obverse of the 2025 Proof Colorized Australian Kangaroo Silver Coin displays the left-profile effigy of King Charles III. This design by Dan Thorne features the king without a crown, reflecting the latest updates to Australian coinage. The inscriptions include CHARLES III, AUSTRALIA, and 1 DOLLAR.

Reverse

On the reverse of 2025 Proof Colorized Kangaroo 1 oz Silver Coins, two kangaroos are depicted in their natural habitat. One is shown leaping across the grassy landscape, while the other is resting in the shade to avoid the midday heat. Western Grey kangaroos, like those portrayed in this design, are known for their adaptability to a variety of environments across southwestern Australia. Inscriptions here include 2025, 1 OZ, 9999 SILVER, KANGAROO, and the P mint mark.

History

Kangaroos are well-adapted to the diverse landscapes of Australia, from arid central regions to more temperate coastal areas. The red kangaroo, the largest of its kind, is built for the countrys dry interior, where its strong legs and large feet help it travel long distances. Eastern Grey kangaroos are more commonly found in forested regions along the eastern seaboard, where food and water are more plentiful.
