Story

Kookaburra coin celebrates Perth

Known as Australia’s ‘king of the bush’, kookaburras are also popular inhabitants of urban areas, including Perth’s glorious 400 hectares of open space on the edge of its CBD. A wonderful memento of Perth, this coin depicts a kookaburra about to land in the globally-recognised inner city playground of Kings Park.

Antiqued finish highlights design 

Each coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver in antiqued quality. To capture the depth and detail of the design, the coin is struck in high relief to a rimless format, and has been individually ‘antiqued’ to give it a unique finish conveying the surface abrasions of an ancient artefact. As a result of this treatment the appearance of each coin may vary.
