2024 $10 Kangaroo Series - Desert Life 1/10oz Gold Proof Coin

2024 $10 Kangaroo Series - Desert Life 1/10oz Gold Proof Coin 

The Royal Australian Mint proudly presents Desert Life, the thirty-first release in its Kangaroo Series, celebrating the iconic Red Kangaroo and it home in Australia's arid red centre.

The reverse design depicts a kangaroo taking are refreshing drink at a desert waterhole.

The golden glow of this 2024 $10 Gold Proof Coin evokes the heat of the desert, while the detailed polishes and frostings contrast the rugged surrounding from the shimmering surface of the cooling water.

Desert life is harsh and unforgiving, yet the Red Kangaroo has adapted to these surroundings and can go for long periods without water.

But when water is found, this desert dweller enjoys a long cooling drink. This stunning and limited mintage coin is truly as precious and rare as a drink of water in the desert.

The Royal Australian Mint continues to tell the unique stories of our iconic national symbol through its ongoing Kangaroo Series.
