That is a nice coin. I might have to try and bag me a silver version at the next ballot if they are still making them.

Hey @scooter77, I just did a quick bit of research to see if I could find anything.

I found the above article about the 1/5oz gold Kangaroo at Sunset, it seems that 2018 was the final year for this design in gold. Not a bad run from 2007 - 2018.
In terms of the silver design, similar story. Its run was from 2010 - 2019.

The Royal Australian Mint have now released a new design called, 'Kangaroo at Dawn' as the replacement to the 'Kangaroo at Sunset' design. It's a nice design, but I don't think it is quite as classic as the 'Kangaroo at Sunset'
