| Aanvullende informatie |
The Perth Mint's gold kangaroo series shifts its reverse design annually — a policy adopted in 1989 specifically to stimulate collector demand and discourage melting, since each year's coin is technically unique. The 2006 grey kangaroo reverse is one of the quieter designs in the run, lacking the dramatic action poses of some earlier issues, but the .9999 fineness was already a point of commercial distinction when most sovereign mints were still striking bullion at .9167 or .900.
Ian Rank-Broadley's fourth portrait of Elizabeth II, introduced across Commonwealth coinage from 1998, appears here with the "IRB" initials — a detail that occasionally generates misattribution queries from less experienced collectors.
