The obverse of the 2026 Australian Gold Kangaroo shows a portrait of King Charles III. He is depicted in left-profile relief without a crown. This design was created by Dan Thorne and serves as the official first-generation effigy of His Majesty on Australian coinage.

On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Gold Kangaroo Coin, you will find a design featuring two kangaroos moving through shallow water. As they bound forward, ripples form beneath them, adding a sense of motion to the scene. Kangaroos have evolved their hopping movement over time, allowing them to travel efficiently across wide areas of the Australian landscape.

To authenticate your coin, make sure NFC scanning is enabled on your device before using the MintID app. Open the app and follow the prompts to scan the card. The MintID system is designed to verify your coin without collecting personal data, offering a straightforward and secure way to confirm authenticity.
