The Australian Kangaroo, also commonly known as The Australian Gold Nugget, has been produced by the Perth Mint since 1986.
During its lifetime the reverse coin design has changed annually, being one of the few half-ounce gold bullion coins on the market to do so.
From initial introduction in 1986 to 1988 the reverse design featured a traditional golden nugget, whilst from 1989 to present day the design has featured the iconic kangaroo.
Key Points:
- Half troy ounce of 999.9 fine gold.
- Features a laser-engraved P125 privy mark celebrating the 125th anniversary of The Perth Mint.
- The first Australian Kangaroo bullion coin to feature the portrait of King Charles III.
- VAT free for non-VAT registered private individuals.
- Individually packaged in a single coin capsule.
- Finished to The Perth Mint’s bullion standard.
Please note, these coins are not exempt from Capital Gains Tax.
How are bullion prices calculated?
The 'buy' and 'sell' prices shown on the website represent the market value of raw vaulted metal in an 'unallocated' form. This is the standard way prices are quoted throughout the bullion industry. In order for The Royal Mint to deliver beautifully crafted precious metals products to your address, or to our vault, a number of processes must take place, all of which incur a cost. These processes include transportation, refining, minting, quality checking and merchandising.
The price at which The Royal Mint is able to sell bullion products to consumers is therefore made up of the 'spot price' (the buy price) plus an additional premium. The premium accounts for the costs incurred in manufacturing a particular product and is usually either a percentage of the buy price or a fixed monetary amount. In short, manufactured bullion products always sell at a premium to enable retailers and manufacturers to cover their costs.
Can I spend/pay using my bullion coins?
All UK coins, whether circulating or non-circulating, are authorised as “legal tender” by Royal Proclamation, in accordance with the Coinage Act of 1971.
Legal tender allows UK coins to be accepted for payment of debts in court – but, only circulating legal tender coins are designed to be spent and traded at businesses and banks. The Royal Mint creates commemorative and bullion coin series to celebrate key moments or individuals, and these are treasured for their collectable and aesthetic value, or purchased for investment opportunities. However, these non-circulating, commemorative and bullion coins are limited edition and will not enter general circulation – meaning banks and businesses are not required to accept them.
