One Dollar 2025 Baby, Coin from Australia - detailed information

The one dollar coin circulating denomination (written as $1) was introduced in Australia in 1984, replacing the earlier banknotes. The original reverse design by Stuart Devlin featuring five kangaroos - known in Australia as the "Mob of Roos" design - has not been changed since its introduction.

The denomination is also used by both the Royal Australian Mint and the Perth Mint to issue an extensive range of collector coins, which are legal tender in Australia - such as this one.

This coin design was issued as part of the Royal Australian Mint's annual baby coin sets, which the mint has been releasing annually since 1995. The 2025 set, named Aussie Bubs (from Australian: Australian Babies) continues the tradition of joyously celebrating all things baby, coin and collecting. Inspired by traditional designs, these coins have a fresh, whimsical twist. Elyssa Waterford's design beautifully capture Australia’s wildlife, where "Quentin the quokka proudly holds the Mob of Roos coin on the one dollar coin".

No coins of this type have been released into circulation.
