Celebrate a true Aussie icon with this stunning 2020 Icons of Australia release – the 'Mob of Roos' $1 Silver Proof coin. This impressive 5oz coin pays homage to Stuart Devlin's vibrant and original kangaroo design, which first graced Australia's circulating $1 coins back in 1984. The 'Mob of Roos' is not only well-respected throughout Australia but has also garnered international acclaim.

Devlin, a multifaceted talent who also designed iconic jewellery, furniture, artworks, and coinage for over 30 countries including the United Kingdom and Singapore, famously said, ‘I like the fact that millions of people around the world carry my work in their pockets.’ This coin allows you to hold a significant piece of his artistry in your very own hands.

This premium quality coin features the iconic 'Mob of Roos' design selectively gold plated for a touch of luxurious contrast. The obverse showcases the elegant effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark. As Australian legal tender, this coin is a truly special collectible.

Each coin is presented in an attractive presentation case and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

Please note the following condition details: On the obverse, a slight ghosting effect, which may be toning, is visible on the effigy. Additionally, there are some minor marks present on the inner plastic capsule that surrounds the cheek of Her Majesty's effigy. These marks are reflections from the capsule and are not imperfections on the coin's surface. On the reverse, a small piece of paper fibre has made its way inside the capsule, as can be seen in the accompanying images.

With a maximum mintage of just 1,000, this is a rare opportunity to own a substantial and beautiful piece of Australian numismatic history. Don't miss out on adding this exceptional coin to your collection!
