Additional information

The "Kangaroo Dreaming" dollar is part of a short-lived Perth Mint experiment with pad printing — a technique borrowed from industrial product decoration that allowed polychrome detail impossible through conventional enameling or colorization. The process involves a silicone pad transferring ink from an etched plate directly onto the coin surface, and Perth was among the first mints globally to apply it to numismatic silver at scale. Adhesion quality varied across early runs, and examples with flaking or color shift are not uncommon.
