Each year's Australian 1 oz Silver Kookaburra Coin has a different design, which adds to the collectibility of this silver coin series. The kookaburra is the largest member of the kingfisher family of birds. The joyously named laughing kookaburra is one of the most popular Australian birds.
Depicted in flight or resting on a branch on the reverse surface of this Perth Mint-produced legal tender silver coin (depending on the year of mintage), the silver kookaburra strikes a handsome image. The obverse surface of these fine .999 silver coins bears an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. These silver coins are legal tender in Australia with face values of $1 AUD although they are traded based on their .999 silver bullion content and silver coin collectibility.
