1996 Australia 1/10 oz Gold Nugget
1996 Australia 1/10 oz Gold Nugget
Struck by the Perth Mint, this 1996 release from the Australian Kangaroo series showcases a delicate and naturalistic reverse design. Created by artist Louise Pinder, the reverse imagery captures a kangaroo alongside its joey, celebrating Australia's most famous native marsupial. The design is accompanied by inscriptions indicating the coin's weight of 1/10 ounce, its 9999 gold purity, and the year 1996. The obverse of this gold piece displays the classic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Alongside the royal likeness, the face value of 15 Dollars is clearly inscribed, confirming its status as official Australian legal tender. This Brilliant Uncirculated coin was released with a limited mintage of 200,000 pieces, making it a fascinating study for those who appreciate fine wildlife motifs and high-purity gold striking.
