2013 $1 2 Coin Proof Set Kangaroos Of The World Royal Australian Mint RAM

The kangaroo has been known as an uniquely Australian animal for
many years; however, the Royal Australian Mint would like to pay
tribute to countries around the world that also have become a home
to this unique animal.

The Royal Australian Mint and the Norowdy Bank Polski have
combined their skills and expertise to produce this two coin set of
which two very different kangaroos are featured.

The coin produced by Norowdy Bank Polski features a coloured image of their rare Albino Kangaroo, a Red-necked Wallaby, which was born in captivity. The Royal Australian Mint also uses colour to bring to life an Eastern Grey Kangaroo, commonly found in bushland across the country.

Each coin has been struck from one ounce fine silver with a colour printed image of these two spectacular kangaroos. Housed in a wooden display case and accompanied by a numbered certificate this set is stylish and will appeal to collectors.
