1995 Australian Silver Kangaroo – 1 oz Special Fair Issue

Issued especially for the Sydney International Coin & Banknote Fair held 25–26 November 1995, this 1995 Australian Silver Kangaroo fair-special features a striking head-profile of the Eastern Grey Kangaroo. Struck from 1 troy ounce of 99.9% silver in frosted uncirculated finish, it offers both bullion value and numismatic significance.

This coin was issued by the Royal Australian Mint in Canberra and presented in a red display box emblazoned with the Australian Coat of Arms, enclosed within a themed outer sleeve bearing fair details. The obverse features Queen Elizabeth II (Maklouf portrait), while the reverse showcases the kangaroo design by Horst Hahne. With only 2,500 pieces issued exclusively for the fair, this coin is a rare collector’s item.
