Their powerful hind legs, long balancing tails, and unique hopping motion allow them to move with ease and agility. These amazing animals have adapted well to Australia’s vast and diverse landscapes.

Along the eastern coastline, the Eastern Grey Kangaroo thrives in wetlands and forests, benefiting from abundant vegetation and water sources. These social animals gather in groups called mobs, sharing the responsibility of watching for predators while others graze. The Eastern Grey is one of four major kangaroo subspecies across Australia.
The obverse of the 2025 Australian Gold Kangaroo Coin features the first-generation portrait of His Majesty King Charles III. Designed by Dan Thorne in 2024, the left-profile bust depicts Charles III without a crown.
On the reverse, two kangaroos are shown in the harsh conditions of the Australian Outback. One kangaroo lies on its side in the sand in the foreground, while another hops across the dunes in the background, capturing the dynamic nature of these iconic marsupials.
