BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
KANGAROO
Appearance: Grey-brown kangaroo-like marsupial with yellow-striped tail, white underside, yellow forearms and yellow feet.
Habitat: Rock crevices and caves in semi-arid country from South Australia to south-west Queensland.
Diet: Feeds in the cool of dusk and early morning on native grasses, plants and bark.
Interesting Rock Wallaby Facts:
With thick, rough pads of skin on its feet to prevent slipping, this wallaby can climb up sloping tree trunks. When the Rock Wallaby senses danger it will stomp the ground with its hind legs as a warning to others.
All coins in the series:
Kangaroo
Baby sugar glider
Dingo
Bilby
Koala
The coin’s reverse portrays a gorgeous interpretation of an infant kangaroo in vivid colour.
The Perth Mint will issue no more than 10,000 coins of this series.
The coin is housed in a display case and box-shipper portraying more stunning imagery by Elise Martinson.
Accompanied by a Numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
