2026 Perth Mint Kookaburra Silver Coin - 1oz
Ideally suited to the investor, this coin from the long-running Australian Kookaburra series is struck from 1oz of 99.99% pure silver with a superb new portrayal of the native bird in flight.
The kookaburra is known for its iconic, laughter-like call that echoes through the Australian bush at dawn, earning it the nickname 'bushman’s clock' for its reliable morning chorus. A member of the kingfisher family, it’s admired for its sturdy build, sharp beak, and keen hunting skills. Its presence in folklore, art, and children’s songs has made the kookaburra a cherished symbol of Australian wildlife and identity.
The coin’s reverse portrays an image of the kookaburra in flight over a river, framed by lush trees and rugged rocks. Included in the design is the inscription ‘KOOKABURRA’, along with The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the coin’s weight, purity, and 2026 year-date.
The coin’s obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, and the coin’s monetary denomination.
The coin incorporates an authentication feature on the reverse. In the form of a micro-laser engraved letter, it is only detectable under a magnifying glass.
Each coin is housed in a protective acrylic capsule for preservation.
