Obverse description says 2008 but the year line is for 2009. There are no pictures and no KM#... Can someone figure out which one it is and fix it?

If the year is 2008, the mintage is 23,357.
If 2009, it's 36,235.

Is anyone an expert on Perth Mint stuff? It loses me most of the time.

Well, we know it's a Perth Mint bullion coin. Their are issued every year. 2008 and 2009 designs are different. Numista already has a listing for the 2008 1/10 oz gold (https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces37055.html), which would suggest that the one in question is 2009, i.e. this coin: https://www.apmex.com/product/43908/2009-australia-1-10-oz-gold-kangaroo-bu, so it would be just a matter of fixing the typo in obverse description.

ps: I've put in a modification request to change it to 2009.
