The Australian Silver Kookaburra series, first introduced by the Perth Mint in 1990, stands as one of the world’s most respected bullion coin programs. Each year features a new design showcasing the iconic kookaburra bird, making the series particularly appealing to both investors and collectors. Struck in .9999 pure silver, as of 2018, with a standard weight of one troy ounce, these coins combine intrinsic precious metal value with artistic merit and limited mintage appeal. Right now, the 1999 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coin is available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1999 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coin comes with a plastic capsule. The 1 oz Silver Kookaburra had a maximum mintage of 300,000 coins in 1999, with final sales coming in at just 109,364 coins. This release marked a modest increase from the previous year, but remained well below the previous issues from 1990 to 1997.
The 1999 Australian Silver Kookaburra marked the tenth release of this prestigious series, representing a significant milestone in the program’s history. This one-ounce silver coin maintained the series’ high standards of quality and purity while introducing a fresh artistic interpretation of Australia’s beloved kookaburra.
In the obverse design of the 1999 Australian Silver Kookaburra, the mint continues with Ian Rank-Broadley’s fourth-generation effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Introduced a year earlier, this design captures Her Majesty in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.
For the reverse of the 1999 1 oz Silver Kookaburra Coin, the design presents two kookaburras positioned together on a branch, creating a dynamic composition that departs from single-bird depictions. This paired arrangement captures a moment of natural interaction between the birds, with careful attention to anatomical accuracy and the species’ characteristic features. The design demonstrates skilled engraving technique in rendering multiple subjects while maintaining clarity and visual balance across the coin’s surface.
