The first editions (1986-1989) show representations and names of famous nuggets on the motif side. From 1990 the Perth Mint switched to the much more popular kangaroo motif, which still adorns one side of the coin.he 1oz coins includes a security feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter within each coin’s ‘AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO’ inscription. It is only detectable under a magnifying glass.
