2025 Kangaroo Series – Bush Capital 1oz Silver Proof Coin

The Royal Australian Mint proudly presents Bush Capital, the thirty-second release in its long running Kangaroo Series.

This stunning 2025 $1 Fine Silver Proof Coin celebrates Canberra, the Mint’s beautiful bush capital home, and the city’s iconic local resident, the eastern grey kangaroo.

Life in the open grasslands can be unpredictable, but the eastern grey kangaroo is well suited to these environments. Agile and social, it thrives in the cooler, wetter regions, and grazes peacefully in the early morning and late afternoon when conditions are just right.

As part of the Royal Australian Mint’s 60th anniversary in 2025, Bush Capital celebrates the Mint’s unique and beautiful location, as well as one of Canberra’s most ubiquitous marsupial inhabitants.

Each coin is struck by the Royal Australian Mint from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver and is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965 with a mintage of 5,000.

DESIGN

The reverse design depicts an elegant eastern grey kangaroo bounding through a stylised representation of the bush capital. Swathes of dense and ornate bushland counterpoint striking representations of iconic Canberra landmarks including Parliament House, Black Mountain Tower and the Royal Australian Mint. A sky full of majestic hot air balloons finish this stunning coin design. Also features the weight, fineness and monetary denomination.

The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III sculpted by Daniel Thorne as well as the 2025 year-date.

PRESENTATION

Each coin comes encapsulated inside of a black Royal Australian Mint display case presented in a blue-orange outback inspired Kangaroo shipper. Each coin comes accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity.
