The kookaburra is native to Australia and New Guinea and is often found in habitats ranging from dry savannahs to humid forests, which indicates why the design depicts the bird by a water source. In Native American cultures, the kookaburra is commonly known as the Laughing Kookaburra as it is associated with icons of joy and laughter. This is undoubtedly due to its bird call that is said to ring out happiness to those who hear it.

ABOUT THE SERIES

The Kookaburra Silver Coin Series was first issued in 1990 and has since been a trusted bullion coin series from the Perth Mint. The design changes on a yearly basis but always sports the iconic kookaburra, as it honours this highly celebrated bird among the First Nations people in the region.

ABOUT THE PERTH MINT

The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint’s 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
