The Australian Silver Kangaroo started their bullion coin series in 2015. This was struck at the Perth Mint, which was founded as a branch of the Royal Mint in London.
The obverse depicts a Native American with date, weight, and purity, and the reverse show a buffalo in an aggressive stance, outlined by the words Liberty, Independence, and Freedom. This is a 1 oz round, not a coin.
When I started stacking silver and gold, there were only 10 government issued bullion coins. Today, it has more than doubled.
