1989 Australia 1 oz Proof Gold Nugget
Struck in 1989, this impressive Australian legal tender coin represents a fascinating moment in modern numismatics. Crafted with a weight of one troy ounce of highly refined 0.9999 fine gold, the piece is a brilliant example of the Proof Gold Nugget series. Backed by the Australian government, the coin combines exceptional purity with a limited mintage of just 7,725 pieces, making it a notable subject for study. The reverse of the coin showcases a dynamic hopping Red Kangaroo, a design created by Dr. Stuart Devlin. The energetic posture of the marsupial is captured in fine detail, surrounded by inscriptions that record its weight, purity, and the year of issue. On the obverse, the coin displays the right-facing profile of Queen Elizabeth II, a classic royal portrait that anchors the coin's official face value of 100 Dollars.
