2009 RAM Kangaroo 1oz Silver Gilded Proof Coin

The Royal Australian Mint continues its celebrated tribute to fine art and native fauna with the 2009 Australian Artists Kangaroo release. This premium coin features the highly acclaimed artistic interpretation of Australia's iconic marsupial by world-renowned artist Ken Done. Struck from one ounce of 99.9% pure silver, the design brilliantly balances Done’s signature vibrant styling with high-end numismatic craftsmanship, bringing global artistic prestige to a classic bullion theme.

Boasting an exceptional proof finish, the coin's standout feature is its selective 24-karat gold plating, which meticulously highlights the kangaroo and radiant sun against a finely textured silver background. This striking contrast creates remarkable eye appeal, making it a focal piece for Australian decimal collectors and art enthusiasts alike. Each coin is securely preserved in protective custom encapsulation to maintain its pristine, untouched condition over time.

With a strictly limited mintage of just 12,500 pieces worldwide, this coin carries significant secondary market and collector value. It comes beautifully housed in the standard Royal Australian Mint luxury presentation case alongside a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. This elegant release stands as a vital addition for discerning proof collectors looking to bridge the gap between contemporary Australian art and elite numismatics.
