| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed depiction of a red kangaroo in mid-bound, rendered in high relief with naturalistic musculature and texture, set against a ground of native Australian scrub vegetation.

Below the kangaroo, the inscriptions '2017 1/4 oz 9999 GOLD' are engraved in the lower field.
