What is the price of an Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin?
The price of Australian 1 oz gold kangaroo coins is shown in the upper right section of this page. The price of a 1 oz Gold Kangaroo is calculated using three components:
- The gold spot price, the weight and purity of gold, and the gold premium.
- The gold premium is the percentage adjustment that is added or deducted from the gold spot price depending on whether a gold buyer is buying (add premium) or selling (deduct premium).
- The gold premium of Gold Kangaroos is determined by the costs of production, refining, fabrication, minting, and the logistics of making the gold coins available for sale in the UK. The price of a Gold Kangaroo is also impacted by supply and demand and the amount of gold being bought.
In order to determine the price of Australian Kangaroo Gold, simply multiply the spot price of gold by the number of gold troy ounces in the coin (1 ounce) and then add or subtract the current premium for the coin or coins. GoldCore’s premiums on Kangaroos are competitive at between 3.5% and 5%.

The History of Australian Kangaroo Gold Coins
In 1987, the year of the last Wall Street crash, The Perth Mint introduced the Australian Kangaroo gold coin 1 oz. The Perth Mint is entirely owned and backed by the Western Australian Government.
The first release featured an image of the world’s largest gold nugget, the 2,284 oz ‘Welcome Stranger’ nugget, which was found in Victoria in 1869. For the next three years, other significant natural nuggets were showcased on this unique program.
Since 1990, the Australian Nugget has carried different portraits of the uniquely Australian animal – the kangaroo – and as a result, it has become known as the Australian Kangaroo.
The Australian Kangaroo Gold Coins coins now feature a new design of Australia’s most famous marsupial – the kangaroo – each year. The only exception is the large 1 kilo size release, which maintains a classic kangaroo design created by Dr Stuart Devlin, AO, CMG, goldsmith and jeweller to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. This and the reasonably limited mintage adds a degree of collectibility to Kangaroo Gold Coins.
Perth Mint
The Perth Mint is fully owned by the Western Australian state government. The mint operates Australia’s largest gold refinery and one of the world’s largest gold refineries. It also mints legal tender gold and silver coins on behalf of the Australian Commonwealth Government, and a range of silver and gold bar products.
The Perth Mint refinery is on the LBMA’s good delivery list for both gold and silver good delivery bars, and on the CME’s Comex approved refinery list for gold bars.
GoldCore only sells gold coins from trusted government mints such as The Royal Mint, The Austrian Mint, The U.S. Mint, The South African Mint, The Royal Canadian Mint, and The Perth Mint.
