KANGAROO AT SUNSET Silver Coin Proof 1$ Australia 2011
The contemporary design of the Kangaroo at Sunset coin has made it one of the most sought-after collector pieces from the Royal Australian Mint. The familiar design of the lone kangaroo bounding across the desert plains against a setting sun has now be reproduce in fine silver.

This is one of the most internationally recognised and highly acclaimed coin designs by world renowned sculptor Wojciech Pietranik produced by the Royal Australian Mint. The reverse design captures the spirit of a quintessentially Australian icon the Kangaroo.
The obverse features Ian Rank Broadley’s effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, unusually accompanied by the coin’s $1 denomination. The coin is produced in over 6 grams of fine silver and handsomely housed in a black wooden case which highlights the stunning proof finish when opened for viewing. Themed outer packaging adds the perfect finishing touch.
