History & provenance
Australian minting in a rectangular format.
The 2025 issue is one chapter in the series. The Perth Mint’s silver-bar programs carry Australian motifs into storage-friendly forms. The Kangaroo minted bar uses radiating lines, the swan mintmark, and a repeating kangaroo reverse; the Dragon coin-bar pairs a rectangular silhouette with legal-tender status and an annually dated design.
Both formats use .9999 fine silver and dense surface detail to establish identity beyond weight alone. The result sits between straightforward refinery bullion and a collectible series: recognizable enough to stack, but deliberately designed to reward close viewing.
