    Outback Majesty evokes images of Australia’s arid centre, the epic Never Never and its undisputed king - the ubiquitous kangaroo. The Royal Australian Mint has stunningly immortalised both of these Australian icons on this shimmering 2021 $1 Fine Silver Frosted Uncirculated Coin.

    Competitively priced and with minimal packaging this frosted uncirculated coin is perfect for collectors and investors alike.

    At that price, you're better off getting the proof as it's $105. If you're willing to fork out $70, an extra $35 is not much of a stretch

    I collect the RAM proof Kangaroo coins, so I will add the 2021 "Outback Majesty" to the collection but not with much enthusiasm. Some of the designs in the 3 and 4 year sub-series are great (e.g. First Sightings, Seasons Change), but the 2021 design looks ordinary.
    But I guess after 28 years thinking of new and interesting ways to present a kangaroo is a challenge. Somewhat similar with the PM and the kookaburra.

    Looks good, but why's it much more expensive than their other 1oz silver coins? Is it more expensive for them to produce?
