About the 1 oz Silver Kangaroo
It has been issued by The Perth Mint since 2016 and is legal tender in Australia. At 999.9 fineness it is among the purest silver bullion coins available, and its consistent design makes it easy to recognize and resell.
Silver costs far less per ounce than gold, so it lets you hold a larger quantity of precious metal for the same budget. Silver coins from national mints carry a higher premium than silver bars, but they are widely recognized and easy to sell one coin at a time.
