Description:
This coin’s design delicately captures the intimate moment between the kangaroo mother and her baby, a mother kangaroo stands vigilant in left-profile relief as its young joey is standing by its side. Portrayed in stunning detail against the backdrop of the Australian Outback with natural foliage fills the background field around them. The artwork beautifully illustrates the protective stance of the mother and the curious nature of the joey. Included in the design are radial lines suggestive of the setting sun. In the left field, The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ Mint Mark appears and the designer's initials (JM) below, on a mother's foot.
