I just want to point out that both "Kangaroo in Outback" and "Kangaroo at Sunset" F15 series are from Royal Aussie Mint, not from Perth.
I think the "Kangaroo in Outback" series just started in 2012, and the posture of the kangaroo is slightly different each year. The 2012 and 2013 coins depict a series of images, of a kangaroo leaping forward, with the windmill shifting slightly to the left.

Thanks for correction, shopaholic. Yes, you right, it is from RAM.
Didn't know, that "Kangaroo in Outback" it actually the series. Wasn't some coloured coin with similar design? Interesting to see the the coin from 2014 - the Kangaroo will leave the windmill behind.

Perth Mint released a kangaroo gold bullion coin in 2012 with a windmill as background, then they released a few coloured coins with the same design (coloured, but no engraving). I am also interested to see what will happen when the windmill is out of the picture, maybe they will move something else in.. like a cactus?

This is good series to collect. Clear and simple design, probably will hold it's value. I like the RAM's products... Too bad I have no budget for this. Added: Nowhere on ebay I see the 2013 year coin. But there is a few from 2012 for reasonable price.

That Outback Kangaroo pales greatly compared to the Sunset Kamgaroo.

Still seems to be logical continue of the clear designed coin

I only got an offer for the gilded coin, but I'm interested in the kangaroo one. Any way I can order one?

The gilded koala is up for purchase on the mint website, and I almost bought it... until I checked the Perth Mint website, you can buy this coin for just under $90 CAD, with free shipping (orders above $65 are free to Canada)... RCM is selling these for $119.95 CAD. You can't get the 2013 gilded koala on the Perth Mint website, the one available has colouring on the tree (which I think looks better), but you can get the previous years gilded koala for the same $90 CAD price. Just wanted to let you know before anyone decided to buy this from the RCM.

I believe the FREE Shipping is only for the first 14 days after registration and on your first online order over $65 after that it is free after $400- but if this is the only item ordering a pretty good deal.
